Rolex Oysterdate Precision Ref. 6694 – Full Harrods Set – 1982
This Rolex Oysterdate Precision Ref. 6694 isn’t just a beautifully preserved vintage Rolex — it’s a piece of British retail history. Sold new through Harrods' iconic Watch and Clock Department in Knightsbridge, this example comes with incredible provenance, including the original receipt, Harrods-stamped warranty papers, inner and outer boxes, and associated retailer documentation.
It’s rare to find a full set as complete and traceable as this, and even rarer when it comes from such a prestigious authorised Rolex retailer. This makes it highly desirable for both collectors and enthusiasts looking for a true time capsule piece.
Housed in a 34mm stainless steel case with a domed bezel, this example features a silver sunburst dial with caramel tritium lume on the hands and indices — a dial that’s aged gracefully over four decades. It’s fitted with the correct Rolex 78350 Oyster bracelet, completing the clean and confident aesthetic.
Inside ticks the manual wind Calibre 1225, a durable and easily serviceable movement that offers a tactile connection to the timepiece every time it’s wound.
Why This Watch Matters
While the 6694 is one of Rolex’s longest-running references, it’s rare to find one with full UK retailer provenance, especially from a name as prestigious as Harrods. The inclusion of original stamped papers and sales documentation adds a historical narrative that many collectors search for — and this one delivers.
The silver dial, domed bezel and crisp case condition make this a strong everyday wearer with plenty of vintage charm. Add in the prestige of the Harrods connection, and it becomes one of the most collectable examples on the market.
