Asking $4500 shipped USA

Up for sale from my collection is a rather uncommon 6305 Datejust from 1953. This is considered a "Big Bubbleback" at 36mm. Case is in very nice condition with original finishs still on the lugs and the bezel is still sharp with all details. The dial has aged slightly, but is in very good condition with the Red Datejust text. Many of these have been refinished. The watch runs well but the rotor touches the caseback ever so slightly. I would recommend a service if to be used daily. It comes on the pictured strap. If you have any questions, feel free to pm me!

Great watch.

I knew a big fat Italian guy years ago, his nickname was “Oval Tony.” Always thought he should be wearing one of these...
