Introduced in 1957 and succeeding the 6511, the 6611 had various important improvements for its time. The 6611’s store up energy for the day advancement continuously, resulting in less rate disruption and better timekeeping. Moreover, its movement has a free-sprung balance with microstella fine adjustment and the 6611 is the first Rolex with “SUPERLATIVE CHRONOMETER OFFICIALLY CERTIFIED” on its dial.
