The Bok Choy Brothers (BCB) is back on Salarywatchman Chats and they are going old school! On a hunt for new traditional food places in Singapore, the BCB will reminisce and chat about watches that continue to excite and inspire. They cover especially this time about ‘My Father’s Watch’ where the stories behind these classic Rolex Precision Oysterdates which their dads chose during the 1970s/80s! Some vintage SOTC (State Of The Collection) will be discussed as well and these quality mechanical timepieces which amaze us today are all awesome choices for a first starter watch.

Guys bought my 6694 for S$3K without box or cert… a clean look just serviced & works like a charm.. with box & cert the price asking above 4.5K depending on condition.. i do got some good compliments when people took notice cause of it classic look… for an everyday guy it’s a steal for my next generation to come as a family heirloom.. great vid guys…🙏🏼

Hello Salarywatchman, just came across your video and I always wanted to get a rolex 6694 but im not sure will it be reliable or not, is there any tips to look out for when purchasing and also when using the watch? other than overwinding.

Hello JapaneseSoba! Thanks for watching and supporting my channel 😊 yes the 6694 is still regarded as one of the most value for money Rolex vintage you can find on the secondary market now. My best tip now is to take your time to search for trusted sellers. You can even option to bring the timepiece to a watchmaker you trust and take a look at the movement and overall health. After that is your feels - if you have affinity with it, go get it. And yup be careful to not over wind it and use it often!

Hey guys, love your show. I currently have a 1970’s 6694. It is a rare gold version. I hardly can find information on this piece. Do you know where I can find out more on this vintage piece?

Hello Kevan! Thanks for your support. My dear Bok Choy Brother (as well as a new special guest) is down with COVID so we had to postpone our filming for our next episode! I have only come across stainless steel models of the Rolex Precision as it was made intentionally as the affordable entry-level timepiece. If there was to be gold, it was either subtlety placed as gilt index markers or the dials. However with you telling me this, I have discovered that you have an extremely RARE 18K full gold version made for the US Market in the 1960s! Congratulations buddy I am very happy for your find! :) I wish I could see it for myself! Here is a link where I found the info: corrvintagewatches.com/product/1960-rare-18k-yellow-gold-and-steel-oysterdate-ref-6694-all-original-rolex-hands-blued-steel-centre-seconds-and-signed-crown-impressive-swiss-made-dress-watch/ May you discover more of such interesting finds in the future. :)
