Rolex Datejust ref. 6305 Ovettone "Black depth dial"

Not all Datejusts are born equal, with some being significantly rarer than others, such as this beautiful reference 6305 with a number of special features, including red DATEJUST, roulette date wheel, early fluted bezel and the cherry on the cake, a depth rating in black.

These early Rolex big bubbleback Datejust watches are known by their Italian nickname ‘Ovettone’ (big egg) due to the exceptional depth of case. This was necessary due to the auto-wind rotor and so the case back is deep and rounded. This one has a strong case. The dial is in excellent original condition, with the vintage styling evident in the OCC text, roulette date wheel and dauphine hands and that special extra line of text of the depth rating. The watch comes on a Jubilee bracelet reference 6215H with 55 endlinks and a clasp stamped ‘1 64’. The movement has been fully serviced by our watchmaker.

This amazing Rolex is certainly one for the connoisseur collector who knows what he wants and understands the rarity! Is that you? Get in touch…
