Rolex 6284

Rare and Attractive, Oyster Perpetual Automatic Wristwatch in Steel, Silver Dial, Retailed by Joyeria Riviera

Model: Oyster Perpetual Reference: 6284 Case Material: Stainless Steel Bracelet Material: Stainless Steel Year: 1953 Movement: Automatic Case N°: 935084 Dimensions: 34 mm Signed: Dial, Movement and Case In 1926, Rolex introduced the first fully waterproof case, named Oyster, followed by the launch of the world’s first self-winding mechanism just five years later. These groundbreaking innovations became the foundation for nearly all of Rolex’s subsequent creations, including the present example of reference 6284. This watch is a remarkable piece, entirely crafted from stainless steel, including its Oyster riveted bracelet, which is both durable and iconic in its design. The case is in outstanding condition, retaining sharp lines on both the case back and the bezel. The dial has a stunning argentè colour, and features applied yellow-gold dagger indexes that add a touch of elegance. What makes this model even more distinctive are the Explorer-style numerals at 3, 6, and 9 o’clock, blending functionality with vintage charm. Above the six o’clock index, the name “Joyeria Riviera” is printed on the dial, a nod to the watch’s origin as a timepiece retailed by the renowned Cuba-based jeweler. Located on the luxury Galiano Boulevard in Havana, Joyeria Riviera was one of the select few retailers authorized to have its name inscribed on the dial, making this watch even more special. The combination of the clean silver dial, the yellow-gold dagger indexes, and the storied provenance of Joyeria Riviera makes this reference 6284 an exceptional piece for any collector.
