Rolex Oyster precision 6694

This was a model that I chose for my mom.

39 years old, a 1974 from its serial number.

Kindly inform me what you guys think. Thanks!

Looks like a wonderful OD from the mid 1970s

Cute! My mom wears a Speedking. On shark-skin, which I think is a violation of professional courtesy.

That's right! We prize our mothers because they take care of us when we OD.

Love that dial! those lume dots look awfully white, so could indicate a re-dial. My next vintage is going to be gold arabic on a white face.
