A 1675 with " Concorde hands ": A 1675 Underline from 1962, Double Swiss: And a 6542 from 1959: If the Concorde and the 6542 came at a reasonable price, the Double Swiss Underline ended quite high, at circa 50 K Euros. Funny how the results differs from o...

It is true that these prices don't add the suspicion that there is some strange activity like in Geneva. Here we see collectors bidding with reasonable parameters. Some watches a little high some watches a little low. This means that upon inspection peopl...

Nicolas in this case the results achieved and nothing to do with the models and everything to do with condition. The double swiss was a dream and should have gone for even higher in my opinion. It was worth every penny at 50K. The 6542 was in mediocre con... 

I inspected both watches and had both in my hand. The market was very rational here. The double swiss was a 9.5/10 watch the 6542 maybe a 7/10 maybe a 6.5/10. Wrong hands, wrong second hand and a bakelite that was cracked in multiple places.

We have all been know to follow our heart.

But much less than a 6542 in equally top condition. There is / should be a hierarchy in the vintage Rolex references, I think. Best, Nicolas

They are really in two classes so I don't think they should compete. The gilt era classes / grouping No crown guard as one class (6542/1675) Pointy crown guard as another Rounded crown guard as a third.
