    Great review! I just bought one in excellent condition. From 1978 with original box and bracelet. Really happy with it so far, it’s even keeping time at +/- 2spd.

    One quick question:
    Why does people prefer not to buy the polished 6694/6494? Is there any devaluation of the piece once its polished?
    Thanks.

    • @oscarleedefur
      @oscarleedefur 4 месяца назад

      That's a great question. I've been lying to myself thinking I knew the answer to why people prefer to keep it unpolished. Just assumed it came down to aesthetic, but now I'm not sure. Maybe because once it's been polished you can't go back to it being unpolished.

    Hi! I’ve seen one with T Swiss Made T at the bottom.. is it ok to buy?

    • @oscarleedefur
      @oscarleedefur 2 месяца назад

      yes

    • @oscarleedefur
      @oscarleedefur 2 месяца назад

      Rolex had these dials made by a few different companies over the years. Some dials say T Swiss Made T. Many say T Swiss T. Some have "Oysterdate" printed narrower than "Rolex", and some say the "Oysterdate" printed wider than "Rolex". Just examine the dial, especially the writing, to be sure it hasn't been repainted or reconditioned. The condition of the dial is significant in determining the value of the watch.

    *I inherited a Rolex Oysterdate Precision with gold (or gold plated) number symbols with pointed ends. I wonder what the pointed ends tell you and whether the number symbols are made of real gold or goldplated. Further the riveted stainless steel bracelet is not Rolex but Solvil Titus. Any idea when the watch was made and their value? Also at the bottom of the dial is the word "SWISS" without the "T" before of after. Thanks*

      It might be a really early iteration of the 6694. The watch definitely will have value if it is an original Rolex, so I'll need to see some pictures before concluding! :)

    Great review! I bought one yesterday, was having second thoughts today in regards to the watch size. Thought it might sit a little small on the wrist. But I think it will work well as a suit watch. So you think the price of the watch will continue to rise over the years?

    • @dilshantime3101
      @dilshantime3101  3 года назад +1

      Congratulations with your purchase, mate! I think that the boy-size never goes out of style, and will continue to be the ideal size for a dress watch. So having a boy-size vintage Rolex is something you should be very proud of, with little to no worry about the value retention and increment, as that is inevitable.

    Hmm i'm in a dilemma here, i got a 6694 everything seems to be authentic except for the dial which i am sus of.
    the Crown is not perfect (but its vintage so not the biggest thing) but i can hardly find any 'Swiss only' versions online except for 1 other forum that talks about it.
    its likely the dial is actually older than the watch when compared with the serial number

His dial has turned tropical, it was originally blue and now grey. Parts are scarce for them, I would be wary of purchasing one today.
