Here is a watch (once more!) I vowed not to sell in fear of not finding another in such original and superlative condition. The predecessor to the much loved Reference 1016, the 6610 is a far rarer watch, and increasingly hard to come by, more so in the condition found on the present watch
Manufacturer - Rolex
Year - 1957
Reference - 6610
Movement - 1030 Automatic
Case Serial - 268843
Material - Stainless Steel - 36 mm not including crown
Case, movement, and dial signed
Original radium dial with gilt lettering, reading high on the geiger counter - small repair to the 12 o'clock marker only evident under UV
Original gilt hands with white lollipop seconds hand, original radium matching the dial
20 mm USA Jubilee bracelet with some stretch but generally good
Original low dome crystal which displays a small amount of crazing from a raked angle, and a small pressure spot in between 1 and 2 o'clock
Service history unknown however the movement is clean and the watch is running strong
