Right 622. The 624 usually has a beveled edge. Either way, thinner than 616/618.

I have this exact same watch. I was told there was something special about the movement because of the Spiral Breguet engraving being straight.

Not sure about the variations in engravings. I have these three.

Your right, I should have said 622. I'm so old school, I still see this as the 618. lol


Here is mine with a little bit different layout for the engraving.

I'm always interested in the Eatons version. Always marked timed in six positions. The Rolex never has the timed in six positions.

Weird; I’ve never seen a straight engraving like that. The font looks bigger and bolder too.

I can not remember who it was, but I think it was someone from here pointed it out. (Probably on the old HF) Maybe around 2014. I wish I would have paid more attention to the post. :(

It looks close to the engravings on your gold one. The gold one has the curved engraving. Is the gold one a 624?

Yes I believe it is a 624.

All 618 has no HPG? Only 622 New rolex has “hpg” seems like.
