Hi guys, I just bought this beast a couple weeks ago and I really enjoy the vintage look of this watch.
Plexiglass with gold hands and gilt dial.

Perhaps one of the most versatile and underrated vintage watches from Rolex?

Khaki NATO goes brilliantly with the gilt!

Welcome!!! Look like a really nice example. They represent great value for money and I especially like it with the strap you have on it. Wear in good health.

That 6694 looks lovely OP, the nato suits it well!

I've been really taken with the 6694 of late, just love the simplicity. Only minor thing holding me back is the size. I have slim wrists and most of the photos I have seen online look fine to my eyes, but my smallest watch is 36mm and it does wear small - although it is much slimmer than the oyster cased Rolex.

I was previously set on a 160x, but now I'm not so sure!!

Enjoy!
