Yesterday a friend came by to deliver this little prince charming: a Rolex Datejust ref. 6605. The original dial has changed colour and aged gracefully to this über cool warm tone - no plastic surgery done here folks. We love the + (brevet) crown and original hands. The bracelet is of a somewhat later vintage, but it finishes off the look nicely. The 6605 is the last Datejust to feature the butterfly movement and (semi-) Bubbleback style caseback. Also, this style of bezel is not to be found in the 1600-series that replaced the 6605. This watch has had a full movement service and runs like a champ.
