Rolex Datejust Ref. 6305 Ovettone with "Swiss Only" Red Writing Dial and Roulette Date
The Inside Story
The Rolex Datejust hardly needs an introduction. As one of the most iconic models in the Rolex lineup, it effortlessly blends luxury and sportiness at an accessible price point. The Datejust is versatile enough to be worn by anyone, on any occasion, which is why we consider it the perfect watch. However, within this iconic line, there’s a niche that even the most seasoned collectors find particularly intriguing: the reference 6305, introduced in the mid-1950s, a decade after the debut of the first Datejust, reference 4467.
We love the finely milled bezel, often referred to as the ‘coin-edge' due to its distinctive texture. The pie-pan style dial is in a beautiful champagne color with lovely, even patina, and features "Officially Certified Chronometer" (OCC) text on the lower half. A rare touch is the red "Datejust" text, a small detail that Rolex collectors truly appreciate! The watch is paired with a lovely Bulang & Sons strap, which we think is a perfect match. The date wheel is of the roulette style, with even numbers in red and odd numbers in black—just like a roulette table at a casino!
This rare Datejust has been fully serviced by our watchmaker.
This is a true gem for the serious collector with exceptional taste. Don’t hesitate to reach out to discuss this rare beauty further.
