The Rolex reference 6613 is a more precious and extremely rare variation of the reference 6611 that substituted the reference 6511. The substantial difference is on a mechanical level, with the introduction of the new Microstella balance wheel with adjustment screw: this modification to the movement allows the Rolex Day-Date 6611 to boast the prestigious Superlative Chronometer Officially Certified certification which certifies its accuracy. It is the first model of the crowned house to be able to exhibit this coveted recognition since its predecessor instead exhibited the Officially Certified Chronometer caption. The 6613 here offered is extremely precious and sought after since an exceedingly limited production has been made of this model and very few other references 6613 can be found offered on the international auction market, which highlights the rarity and importance of the present watch. This specimen is even more important since the platinum case has been preserved in almost mint conditions and so is the uber rare platinum jubilee bracelet, one of the very few produced in the history of vintage pieces watches. The silvered dial has applied diamond set indexes and English calendar while another very unusual characteristic is the fact that both hands and indexes don’t have luminous material, an absolute rarity that makes the present watch a really collectable piece. Only one example can be found in literature, which is published by John Goldberger in 100 Superlative Rolex Watches. In his book, the watch illustrated is fitted with dial’s numbers and calendar apertures in Arabic script.
