Rolex Oysterdate 6694 1962 watch 34mm manual wind beautiful patina tropical dial
This Rolex Oysterdate 34mm is in beautiful vintage condition and is this version, reference 6694, is the last Rolex to feature a manual winding movement. The watch offers a glimpse into horological history, with the simplest of form factors, sword hands, clean lines and basic functionality, with the only offered complication being a date feature (and not even a quick set date!). The watch features (by modern standards) a small 34mm case size and the bracelet is sized to fit a circa 7 to 7.5" wrist size with one spare link included. Being a vintage watch of 60+ years, the watch does show some minor signs of wear on very close inspection but is in excellent condition considering its age and appears to have had a polish at some stage to restore. The watch is running exactly as it should but again, timekeeping is vintage so expect a tolerance of around -1 to +1 minutes per day accuracy. The watch (as many from this era) is sold without box and papers, however, the buyer will receive a Watch Register certificate, showing that the watch has been background checked against loss, theft and fraud and the watch is presented in a Wetherby Watches vegan leather travel case. The ideal entry level Rolex, suitable for either gender.
