Rolex Oyster Perpetual Ref. 6084 - Non-Luminous 'Cream' Dial Unpolished

Sale price$8,450.00 USD

If you boil Rolex down to its purest form, what do you get?

The Rolex Oyster Perpetual. This is truly the genesis for the entire Rolex brand. The very first Rolex models were called ‘Oysters’ which was owed to their innovative three part case that all screwed into each-other. This watch represents an evolution of that, when these were still semi-bubble back watches.

The piece that we have here, simply know as an Oyster Perpetual, is a descendant of those early watches, though is probably not what first comes to mind when your hear Oyster Perpetual...

Dating to circa 1961, this 34mm piece is possesses some incredibly attractive and charming characteristics and is offered in fantastic overall condition. It is constructed out of solid 18k yellow gold and is in seemingly unpolished condition. The lugs remain symmetrical at all four corners and it shows normal signs of wear for its age. The correct, smooth yellow gold bezel is in matching condition. The real highlight of this piece, is that warm cream dial inside. The satin surface remains clean with excellent text and features applied 'pencil' indices with a matching non-luminous 'feuille' handset.

Despite being ‘entry-level’ these vintage OPs offer a ton of character and remain an overlooked part of the important history of Rolex on their journey to the powerhouse brand that they are today. Don't let the case size fool you, these 34mm Rolex models are chronically slept on and present great value next to its more well-known siblings, while truly embodying the essence of Rolex.

And you cant go wrong with a dial reminiscent of a Patek Philippe Ref. 2526...
