Nice review, mate. I'm in the market for a 6694 and this was informative.
All the best with your channel, good to see Newtubers making good content 😊
Hello! Thank you very much for the kind words. I hope to keep going strong.
Great review! I just bought one in excellent condition. From 1978 with original box and bracelet. Really happy with it so far, it’s even keeping time at +/- 2spd.
Fairplay mate! Finding these in excellent condition is not easy, take care of yours!
How much did you buy it for? How much does a 6694 with box, no papers, and no steel bracelet go for these days? Would appreciate any insight
@@Warringkoo probably 2-2.5k
get alot of buying tips on your video, straight to the point good job my friend!
Great review! Excellent advice and recommendations on how to buy!
very informative, Keep it the good work bro !
Thank you for your kind comment. 🙏🏼
Excellent, well done! Thanks for sharing your thoughts with us. Enjoy these lovely timepieces.
The white face with light blue strap is so so nice. Im looking to get a 6694 for my first watch Rolex too. Thanks for the video
Rolex OysterDate Précision with leather strap 🔥🔥🔥😍😍😍
Keep it up kid. The other more well established channels with elaborate backgrounds don't hold a candle to your reviews.
Thank you very much for the kind words! Happy Holidays. :)
Nice And mature review!
Wow, I actually learned more from you today. Thanks for tip of bracelet. I have 6694 in black dial with rose gold hand etc and own another watch Rolex 6426 in silver dial. Great watch to own. Cheers
Thank you for your kind comment mate! Glad I could be of help. 🙏🏼
Great advice, thanks.
happy i could be of help mate! 😁
Great video!
thank you!
hi dilshan, great review! but can i know, why the "oysterdate" font sometimes smaller than the "rolex" font...and sometimes they're bigger? is it because of year of the manufacturing?
Honestly not too sure about this one, mate! Let me know what you find out.
Here ur new follower from LA...
lovely review, very informaive
Thank you very much for your kind words! 💪🏼
Best hands down!
I bought one recently with ori bracelet and good timekeeping. Pple are buying to keep.
Thanks for sharing, yes some people are doing that.
Looking to buy one as my first Rolex, what would be the best way to buy 1 in. The U.S? Should I go online or look for dealers?
Great review! I bought one yesterday, was having second thoughts today in regards to the watch size. Thought it might sit a little small on the wrist. But I think it will work well as a suit watch. So you think the price of the watch will continue to rise over the years?
Congratulations with your purchase, mate! I think that the boy-size never goes out of style, and will continue to be the ideal size for a dress watch. So having a boy-size vintage Rolex is something you should be very proud of, with little to no worry about the value retention and increment, as that is inevitable.
Did you keep the Rolex mate and if so did you get use to the size?
@@buffalorevolver6473 Yep! I love the 34mm size, I’ve got a 34mm Air-King available for sale on my Instagram: DilshanTime 🙌🏼
Hi !Can you tell me how much a black rolex 6694 from 1978 weighs. Thank you
I just bought one recently! Definitely bang for the buck!
Wear in good health mate!
Then you will buy another & another & another ROLEX … dont get addicted …. Lolsss peace …. Great Heirloom (indeed) ….
How much is the value of one
Where can I buy one ?
*I inherited a Rolex Oysterdate Precision with gold (or gold plated) number symbols with pointed ends. I wonder what the pointed ends tell you and whether the number symbols are made of real gold or goldplated. Further the riveted stainless steel bracelet is not Rolex but Solvil Titus. Any idea when the watch was made and their value? Also at the bottom of the dial is the word "SWISS" without the "T" before of after. Thanks*
It might be a really early iteration of the 6694. The watch definitely will have value if it is an original Rolex, so I'll need to see some pictures before concluding! :)
@@dilshantime3101 *My reply disappeared!*
I love Rolex OysterDate Précision
Hi! I’ve seen one with T Swiss Made T at the bottom.. is it ok to buy?
yes
Rolex had these dials made by a few different companies over the years. Some dials say T Swiss Made T. Many say T Swiss T. Some have "Oysterdate" printed narrower than "Rolex", and some say the "Oysterdate" printed wider than "Rolex". Just examine the dial, especially the writing, to be sure it hasn't been repainted or reconditioned. The condition of the dial is significant in determining the value of the watch.
you mentioned you got one for 1800 and one for 2200. british pounds or USD?
Hi, nice to meet you!
This video is very nice!
I am Japanese.
I am thinking that buy Rolex Oyster date 6694 just now.
I will buy it!
Great choice mate! Could not recommend many better vintage Rolexes. Enjoy. 💪🏼
If you will get a 6694 … try also looking at any 36mm ( & above) rolex datejust … as much as possible with box & papers … enjoyyyyyy …. It is mr.Dilshan’s advice that is more informative … peaceeeeee

I have datejust 1601/3 that my father bought abroad 45 years ago.
It is very nice vintage watches!
But, there is not box.
Awesome Video, Where did you purchase the watches from?
Thank you mate. I purchase my watches from Chrono24, private sellers on Instagram, or from members of reliable watch groups.
I’ve got a couple for sale on my Instagram if you’re interested! IG: DilshanTime
@@dilshantime3101 how much is the value of one of the 14k
You got great prices on these. Where did you purchase?
I have a few dealer friends, I sell 6694's from time to time, send me a message on Instagram @dilshantime!
One quick question:
Why does people prefer not to buy the polished 6694/6494? Is there any devaluation of the piece once its polished?
Thanks.
That's a great question. I've been lying to myself thinking I knew the answer to why people prefer to keep it unpolished. Just assumed it came down to aesthetic, but now I'm not sure. Maybe because once it's been polished you can't go back to it being unpolished.
Sir? My 6694 has a serial# 82###6 ... dunno what year & since you mentioned franken ... how do i bring it back to original ? Thank you
Hello mate! That should be from 1984. Not sure how to answer your next question as I do not know which part (or parts) of the wristwatch has been modified and/or replaced.
@@dilshantime3101 ; sir , ooppsss my bad ... the dial & bezel has diamonds ... i got at a local pawnshop ... on a nice leather strap though ... thank you once again sir !!!
@@LeonChetsky3230 I see. You could take it to a Rolex service centre and tell them you want it reinstated to its original condition, they might or might not help. Otherwise, try sourcing for an original 6694 dial & bezel from eBay. Good luck!
@@MT-kx2uc …. Thank you so much for the info. Sir !! Unfortunately am in colorado usa …
@@dilshantime3101 … thank you sir !!!
Hello i have 3 Omega 565,752,1012 but I donot not abuot Rolex so please tall me what is the price of this watch codition is good becouse i want please tell me what is the velue of this Rolex in india please
Hmm i'm in a dilemma here, i got a 6694 everything seems to be authentic except for the dial which i am sus of.
the Crown is not perfect (but its vintage so not the biggest thing) but i can hardly find any 'Swiss only' versions online except for 1 other forum that talks about it.
its likely the dial is actually older than the watch when compared with the serial number
Where did you buy the beautiful light blue bracelet?
Which leather is it?
Best regards, Tom
Hello Tom! I got that Epsom Leather strap from LuxorLeather on Instagram. He's a small business on Instagram but his care and craftsmanship is second to none. I have about 10 straps from him! :)
@@dilshantime3101 Thank you very much for the information. Best regards, TOM
Mr dilshan great video, just wondering how much would a black and rose gold 6694 cost nowadays ?
Hey mate, 6694's didn't come with a rose gold configuration to my knowledge. A black dial 6694 would set you back about £1,800.
@@dilshantime3101 thanks for the update, what I meant actually was a black dial and gold coloured hours on the dail..
How much does it cost 😮
Great Review. However I notice those 6694 produced in the late 80s has got close "6, 9" on the date wheel.
Good spot! :)
@@dilshantime3101 👍😄
how to get one off international site ? u got any recommendation?
I am selling one on my Instagram! @DilshanTime
Otherwise, send me a DM on Instagram and I can recommend a few trustworthy sellers! :)
Good review, thank you. I have a 6694, case in brass rose goldplated 80 microns. Bezel was lost so I put a stainless steel one, as well as a SS original Rolex crown. I find it looks great so. Inside the SS case back it's mentioned 80 microns goldplated case. Lovely vintage dial.
Lovely, thanks for sharing! Wear your piece in great health. :)
I thinking of buying one for aud 3000, which has dial changed to copper Roman figure dial, the sale includes the original dial and hands !,, with the bracelet ! Is it a good deal ?…
Hello mate. That sounds like an okay deal if all parts are original. You won’t lose money at the price. 🙏🏼
@@dilshantime3101 how do I send u a picture of the watch ?..
@@farzaadkatrak9823 Hello mate! You can send me a DM on my Instagram @DilshanTime
Anyone know of a proper place to procure one in the 🇺🇸?
Send me a message on my Instagram @DilshanTime 👍🏼
I have same one wanted to sell?
Great review
Appreciate it, thank you mate! 💪🏼
Great video
Glad you enjoyed it! :)
My 6694 came with an unoriginal bracelet from 1976, A, and I need a 1987 bracelet like yours! Coincidence swap?😅
That would have been perfect, but I've sold the watch a while ago. Hope you find a period-correct bracelet for your 6694! :)
My friend and I purchased a pair of them new in 1972 - he still has his with original bracelet in good condition considering the age. Think we paid about 200 CAD for them. His dial has turned tropical, it was originally blue and now grey. Parts are scarce for them, I would be wary of purchasing one today.
