Normal asking price, actually a little bit high.

My reference shows the 6031 had the word "Swiss" under the 30 second marker at the bottom of this particular watch dial. This one does not. This is what makes vintage Rolex collecting so frustrating for me. Rolex made so many dials for their watches and there seems to be no difinitive reference on all of them so you can never be sure...

By the way, my reference refers to this watch as an "Ovettone" not a DJ.

Nice but I have my doubts about the dial.

Mike is a good guy. Check his references and you will see he is good. Also contact him, he responds very quickly

Nice watch. Dial may have been re-finished But to me it doesnt "really" matter... (Its difficult to find a Ovettone or BB with pristine/non-refinished dial).
