{"product_id":"rolex-oysterdate-precision-6494-w-waffle-dial","title":"Rolex Oysterdate Precision 6494 w\/Waffle Dial","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe Rolex Oysterdate Precision was one of the brand’s longest-running and most understated models, remaining in production from the early 1960s through the late 1980s. Particularly popular in Europe, it never achieved the same prominence in the United States as Rolex’s more prestigious sports and dress models. What makes the 6694 especially intriguing is its manual-wind movement—a rarity among modern Rolex watches. Produced well into an era dominated by automatics, it stands as one of the final manual references in the company’s catalog. Its clean, timeless design and unique place in Rolex history continue to make it an enduring favorite among collectors.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis 430X serial example, circa '58 houses a white waffle dial that has taken a beautiful and warm \"tropical\" patina throughout. The case is excellent with very thick and evenly proportioned lugs showing sharp edges. It is fitted to a later rivet style with '69 clasp code but it matches very nicely. It shows light stretch, retains 12 links, fitting an approximate 7.5 inch wrist. The watch contains its correct \"roulette\" date wheel which is a small detail that makes a notable difference. For anyone looking for a unique and highly charming vintage Rolex from the \"golden era\" of production, this piece hits all the right notes.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Rolex","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53934403059988,"sku":null,"price":4900.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0733\/8603\/3428\/files\/rolex-oysterdate-precision-6494-roulette-date-waffle-dial-hero-vintage-watches-collectors-corner-ny_fd64b418-dbe8-488a-a556-95737ba723a3.jpg?v=1789139913","url":"https:\/\/collectorscornerny.com\/products\/rolex-oysterdate-precision-6494-w-waffle-dial","provider":"Collectors Corner NY","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
