The Watch
No doubt, this is a really interesting Rolex!
The Rolex Precision Oysterdate 6694 was introduced in the early 1960's and was made until late 1980's. These models were extremely popular in Europe with the casual and classy look and smooth bezel. What's even more intresting about this model is that the 6694 have, togheter with Rolex icons as older Explorers, the Daytona chrongraph and some older Air Kings, manual wind calibers. In this Oysterdate you'll find the legendary cal. 1225 - the movement that hums along at 21,600 bph, which is a nice upgrade over the normal 18,000.

Condition
If this watch could talk we would love to hear the story.
The glossy black dial is very well preserved and become a bit tropical, brown-ish in some lights/angles. The tritium have developed a creamy yellow/brown colour. And the golden index’ and hands matches the dial beatifully.
The case got some small marks from wear and so does the bracelet. The case is still sharp as seen in the photo. We never ever polish our watches!
The bracelet is tight and so is the clasp. The bracelet fits up to ~18.5 cm wrists.
The crystal is original. It got some small scratchas but nothing remarkabel.
We leave a 6 months of warranty for this watch!
