The Rolex Bubbleback is one of the brand's most versatile models, and this hooded lugs reference 6064 is among the most coveted in the series. This particular model is distinguished by its striking combination of a stainless steel and yellow-gold case. The three-piece steel case is robust, featuring a smooth, concave gold bezel, screw-down back and crown, and gold hooded lugs. The matte silver dial has developed a unique patina over time, changing to a light-yellow hue, and is adorned with luminous round and dagger hour markers, Arabic numerals, and an outer five-minute/second division. The hands also feature luminous material, along with a hand for constant seconds, adding to its vintage charm and appeal.
