freddy333 Posted December 12, 2012 Report Share Posted December 12, 2012 Remove the strap & you will find the model number between 1 set of lugs & the serial number between the opposite set. You might also remove the caseback & snap a pic of the movement. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mike on a bike Posted December 12, 2012 Author Report Share Posted December 12, 2012 Freddy not mine & the serial numbers my friend gave me didn't match up with anything in the data base I have(I do try to do my homework, before I ask) that being said went to Rolex for repairs so a Rolex, thought one of the Rolex guys might know it off hand. Now I saw same one with date, Precision above the 6 but not this one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
freddy333 Posted December 12, 2012 Report Share Posted December 12, 2012 You might try posting on VRF, but you are still likely to be referred to the model number between the lugs. Hard to tell from the pic, but the dial may be repainted, which will leave that lug number as the only reliable method of deducing the model. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alligoat Posted December 12, 2012 Report Share Posted December 12, 2012 Might be a 6422- you know it's manual wind, doesn't say oyster, looks like a 50's model maybe a 1120 or 1220 movt. inside- try bing or google- that's what i did and found one that looked just like yours 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

amespinosa Posted December 13, 2012 Report Share Posted December 13, 2012 (edited) that's a 6422 oyster, the non-date version of the 6694. most likely it has a 1220, Edited December 13, 2012 by amespinosa 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
