ROLEX Oysterdate Precision watch, ref. 6694, serial no. 30972XX, 1970s. Stainless steel. Circular silver dial with hour markers in applied indices. Baton-style hands, with a central seconds hand.

It works. Measurements: 34 mm (case diameter). With an elegant, functional, and distinctly vintage aesthetic, the 6694 holds a special place in Rolex history: it was one of the last models with a date display and manual winding to remain in the brand’s catalog for a long time, preserving a traditional watchmaking architecture while Rolex established its renowned automatic movements. In our watch descriptions, the phrase “it works” means that the watch is functioning. Since collector’s watches typically have delicate and complex mechanisms, the buyer is responsible for any general servicing, maintenance, battery replacement, adjustment, or repair that may be necessary. We do not guarantee the flawless operation of any watch. All photographs of our watches are original and were taken by our photographers; in other words, we do not use stock photography, which is why the photographs are considered part of the listing.
