Might be a little late here but in case u are looking for more down to earth prices for the servicing, Mr. Goh from K2 can do the job as well. Given his reputation, i doubt u'll be short changed with non genuine parts.

Wow this is a million dollar question... Frankly I've not seen that on my 6694 and didn't pay attention to it either... Most likely it could have meant "Swiss Made"???

Hi

Please don't mind I borrow this thread to ask a Rolex question.
This is a old model.
It doesn't have quick date set.
Is it hand windable?
Thanks!

Thanks! My colleague spent $2k + to change the case and dial, now wondering how much he could sell it to get a new model. My guess is $2k?

not an expert myself but usually these type of vintage: 1601, if head only, market rate is about $1.7+-, 2k+ on jubilee.

Ur colleague spent another 2k+ for the new case & dial so the total chalks up to almost 4k+

He's might take a big loss imo ;)

Actually I'm not sure if its a 1601 or 1501..
But these vintages really ranges between 1.6-2k depends on condition and if it has been serviced before. Usually it will not be worthwhile to sell after investing money to recon. Keep as a heirloom for the kids lah

16XX/X- Datejust

15XX/X- Date

http://www.qualitytyme.net/pages/rolex_faqs.html" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;

So that should be a datejust.

None quickset is quite a nightmare if not worn daily/ regularly. :lol:
