Gday from Sydney Australia
Hello all and good evening. My name is Daniel and I’m the proud owner of a 1985 rolex oysterdate precision. Ref6694.

It’s my first Rolex and it’s been just over 24 hrs and I am chuffed.

Timeless look and I love the fact it is mechanical wind. Makes you feel like you are more apart of the watch.

I also owned a 2016 black bay ref79230n with the in house movement.

Well just wanted to say hello

Thank you very much.

I went to my watch guy yesterday to have it checked over. I wanted to know how due it was for a service etc.

he said it is one of the best condition oysterdates he has ever seen. He replaced the seal on the caseback and away I went.
