1968. Rolex OysterDate mod. 6694 cal 1225 (manual)

Supposedly serviced just two years ago, this Rolex watch was running on "low power reserve". Fully wound, it would only go for 16-18 hours. No wonder why! There was absolutely no lubricant on main spring and the barrel was gummed up with the mixture of old oil and dirt!

Nicely polished and properly lubricated spring ready for insertion in barrel

Ready to go! Power reserve: 34 hours... not bad for a 34 years old watch...
