Very Nice, I also chose a 6694 as my first Rolex and in the 1 month and 12 days I have owned it I have not have to adjust the time at all!

My first Rolex was a 1603. 1977 non quick set date, acrylic crystal, engine cut bezel, all stainless steel with an oyster bracelet. I was a cool $1800.00 with period correct box set.

Florian those are GREAT pictures, you have a good camera too.
I have a 6694 very similar to Peter, when I took it in to get it verified, the lovely lady at the AD said, Rolex would never make one with a black face and golden batons/markers. They also had no idea how to open a watch. I then took it to someone that knew what they were talking about, an experienced watchmaker, not just a floor salesman, who mulled over it for a few minutes and came back telling me how fortunate I was to have a 1961 model in such great shape. Those 6694's are great watches, you really don't have to adjust them, just keep winding them. |
