Description
Rolex’s reference 6694 has classic post 1960s Oyster styling, but it’s the bezel that I think gives it its distinctive character. Being steeply chamfered, the polished bezel lends the watch a surprising heft, and a particularly good profile view. It’s a manually wound Rolex model and this example has a silvered dial with a bright satin finish and applied baton hour indexes. There are some light scuffs and scratches to the steel case.
We have paired this watch with one of our handmade black wild boar watch straps.
