1966 Rolex Oyster Perpetual Classic Vintage Mens Watch, Ref. 6567 - 14K Gold

Rolex

Item No. 9066

Today's offering showcases this very cool Certified Pre-Owned Rolex Oyster Perpetual reference 6567 encased in 14K gold in true expertly restored condition.

Not seen as often as the date models, its "no date" dial and understated case give it a really pleasing and classic style. It's a watch that is perfectly at home being worn everyday or only for special occasions and clearly demonstrates the qualities associated with Rolex watches: precision, reliability, durability, and class.

The centerpiece of the watch is its striking black dial with "spaceship" markers for the primary hours. It brings another added dimension of distinctiveness to the watch.

Housed in one of Rolex's watertight Oyster cases, the wristwatch originally offered its owner complete protection against water, dust, and perspiration.

Powering it is its renowned Caliber 1030 "perpetual" automatic movement with butterfly rotor used in a few early Explorer and Submariner models, as well as Oyster Perpertuals. It was officially certified as a chronometer.

It has all of its original Rolex parts and has just finished a true expertly done restoration. Our photos couldn't begin to do justice to its condition and how it presents!

Its case presents in beautiful condition. It shows fairly mild signs of previous polishing and otherwise presents as mint condition. Its strong black Rolex dial has been meticulously restored - its printing could pass as Rolex factory done to the naked eye.

As part of the restoration a Master Watchmaker has fully serviced the watch which consists of fully disassembling the movement, carefully inspecting each part, replacing any overly worn components, reassembling and lubricating the movement, and extensive timing testing and regulation (a $795 value).

It is running very strong and true, keeping time nearly on par with a new Rolex in our testing position.

For the finishing touch, we have equipped it with a brand new calfskin leather strap with aftermarket Rolex style buckle making it ready for immediate enjoyment.

Included with the purchase is a one-year international warranty on the movement and its function, a custom printed Connoisseur of Time Certificate of Authenticity, and a new timing certificate.

Your watch is important to us, and we will take care of it for its lifetime. We provide the best after sale care in the business with an extremely experienced team of four Master Watchmakers all of whom each have over thirty-five years of experience and a large number of parts. One used to be the watchmaker for an authorized Rolex dealership and was given special training by Rolex at their Beverly Hills Service Center.
