Rolex Oyster Perpetual 6084

The Rolex Oyster Perpetual ref. 6084 is a classic time-only model from the early 1950s, embodying Rolex’s commitment to durability, precision, and timeless design. It features a 34mm case in stainless steel or 18k gold, often fitted with a smooth bezel and domed acrylic crystal, forming a clean and durable waterproof Oyster case. Powering the 6084 is the Rolex Caliber 645, a self-winding movement with bi-directional winding and a power reserve of approximately 42 hours. Dial options for the 6084 were traditional—typically silver, white, or champagne with applied baton or Arabic numerals, dauphine hands, and radium lume in some examples. The lug-to-lug distance is about 42mm, and the lug width is 19mm, offering a balanced wrist presence for mid-century tastes. Produced during a time of significant innovation for Rolex, the 6084 helped cement the brand’s reputation for creating reliable everyday wristwatches with automatic movements and waterproof designs. Though not widely known today, the 6084 holds historical importance for early collectors of Oyster Perpetual models and remains a desirable example of Rolex’s post-war evolution.
