$19,500.00

The Rolex Oyster Perpetual Date Ref. 6105 is a beautifully preserved example of early Rolex craftsmanship from the golden era of Swiss watchmaking. Dating to circa 1952, this exceptional vintage timepiece is crafted entirely in solid 18K yellow gold and reflects Rolex’s pioneering achievements in automatic chronometer watches.

Housed in a classic 36mm Oyster case, the watch features an elegant champagne/silvered dial accented by applied gold hour markers and a date window positioned at 3 o’clock. Notably, the crystal is free of a Cyclops magnifier, a period-correct detail consistent with early Oyster Perpetual Date models. The dial is signed “Rolex Oyster Perpetual” and “Officially Certified Chronometer,” underscoring its precision pedigree.

Completing the design is an engine-turned 18K yellow gold bezel, adding subtle texture and vintage character. The watch is paired with an aftermarket leather strap, allowing the original gold case and dial to remain the focal point. This is a rare opportunity to acquire a highly collectible early Rolex in solid gold, prized by discerning collectors.
