Let me analyze, judging from the the day date looks like comes from 1975-1980, It will be 33-38 years old (my god, has it been that long) and scaling of the hand skin of the wearer. Result: Inconclusive

6611 was only produced for 1 or 2 years ard 1955 to 1956. watch is many many years older than me...my birth year coincided with oil crisis... lol! will show my wide boy later.

buying another older DD soon and interested in suggestions?

I want to buy some DD that is not overly common (that will go up in value) but is not necessarily rare. Something old today but considered vintage in a few years.

Will be buying when I visit USA.

Is the US a good location to buy DDs or Rolexes generally.
I havent been there in years

[minimerc]

the rarest are 6511, follwoed by 6611/b. some with very nice dials especially with diamonds and conditions are quite difficult to find.

for 1803, same thing. dauphines hands, cigarettes hands, dagger markers, wide boy, red quarters etc.

there are many things the USA is NOT but IMO it is the most competitive place in the world to shop for almost anything and has the widest selection

Very beautiful! Interested to know how and where you amass such a day date dials collection? Recently, added 3X Day-Date to my collections...1803, 18038 and 18238...somehow I suspect the diamonds dial on the 18238 is reconditioned and not original even though the seller kept reassuring me it is...how I know bcos the Day-Date wordings is missing out the -... m I right?

Have flipped through many Rolex books n websites n google images n yet to see one Rolex original Day-Date dial with my kind of wordings...anyway, I will bring all my 3X newly acquired Day-Date Rolex to Rolex Centre for a check to see if need servicing as well as verification.

Keeping my fingers crossed!

Very happy with my 3X newly acquired Day-Date Rolex
