A Rolex Oysterdate Precision, reference 6694, in steel with a fluted yellow gold bezel and a cream dial with mixed Arabic and Roman numerals, offered as a watch head.
The Piece
Rolex was founded in London in 1905 and moved to Geneva in 1919, and its Oyster Perpetual, introduced in 1931, added a self-winding rotor to the waterproof Oyster case.
Reference 6694 is the hand-wound Oysterdate Precision. Its cream dial mixes gold Arabic and Roman numerals with triangular markers, carries a date window at three and is marked Precision at six, under a fluted yellow gold bezel. It is an uncommon dial variant.
It was serviced once some years ago and runs as it stands. The case back would not open, so the movement is not shown. The photographs show wear to the case, the lugs and the case back, and the case shows marks around the lugs. It is offered as a head only, without strap or bracelet, and is best suited to a collector or a restorer.
