1952 Rolex 6084 - interesting patina
I've had this 34mm 6084 for about a year, but hadn't gotten around to photographing it yet. I found the way the hands have burned the dial where they stopped for years interesting. The indices sinking into the dial is pretty cool as well.
The bracelet is a WAB 9ct stretch. The super oyster crown is correct to that time period as well. Thanks for reading, and hopefully you found the images interesting as well. ![]() (if you click on the pictures it should go to the higher definition images. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]()

Would that be the radium from the hands affecting the dial?
It’s not my speed but still has a pretty neat look to it. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |

Yeah - I’m guessing whenever the watch stopped for a few years the radium burned the dial below it. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Beautiful hands - and I wonder how long the hands stayed in the same position for! Have you measured the radiation ? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
