Latest Purchase
Just got this Oyster Precision 6426 made in 1971. Very pleased with it, got it with a leather Rolex strap which I am waiting for it to stretch and mould to my wrist.
Anyone use similar or older as a daily beater? Last edited by davidoxman; 7 June 2015 at 10:03 PM.. Reason: Add photo |

Beautiful watch. Congrats!
That strap looks super-tight, though. I hope it stretches as much as you want it to... |

That is beautiful. Sums up everything in my mind about my first impression of Rolex when I was younger.

I love my 6426, mines from 72, a perfect daily wearer
Are those gold markers with steel hands? If so the hands have probably been replaced at some point |

No mate all markers and hands are silver, it's the way the light hits the watch.
How long have you had yours Greg? Do you have on steel or leather strap? Could you do a wrist shot? |

Very nice. Classic, dressy and yet could also be casual.

Here is my 6504. I just got last night and my boyfriend cleaned it up today. The game plan is to wear daily. It's from 1954. Not so bad for being 20 years older than me.
