Ref.6034 Oyster Chronograph 18K Rose Gold Watch

Rolex Ref.6034, Oyster chronograph, 18K rose gold, produced around 1955 – an extraordinarily exquisite and rare manual winding 18K rose gold chronograph watch. Ref.6034 is the benchmark for Rolex chronographs. First of all, Ref.6034 is numbered 6XXX, which represents the first step towards a more sporty chronograph; secondly, Ref.6034 is the second timepiece equipped with a screw-in waterproof bottom cover, which not only improves the practicality of the watch also adds thickness and strength to the case. Replica Rolex.

The watch included in the auction is in good condition. The case is almost new, as evidenced by the two clear marks on the lugs. Even more surprising is that the three marks on the back of the watch show no signs of wear. The rose gold bracelet is very tight and has no slack at all. After a time, the dial shows a subtle color, but it is not oxidized or damaged. In addition, the fluorescent configuration of the toffee needle is also very rare. The watch was estimated at 250,000 to 350,000 Swiss francs before the auction and was finally sold for 600,000 Swiss francs (including commission).

Ref.1680 Submariner COMEX watch

This is a scarce Ref.1680 Submariner watch, produced in 1979, with the COMEX logo on the dial. Of all the COMEX sports watches, the Ref. 1680 is the rarest, with only around 60 made. Most of them were later replaced with regular Rolex dials when they were returned for repair. The fact is surprising. Many watch owners at the time did not like the COMEX logo on the dial.
