Rolex oyster 6426 from 1972

Rolex Oyster Precision 6426 — Clean, Slim & Pure Vintage Rolex

A beautifully preserved example of the minimalist Rolex era, this Oyster Precision 6426 delivers everything collectors love about the hand-wound 34mm references: a razor-sharp case profile, a clean dial, and that lightweight, elegant wrist feel you only get from a manual-wind vintage Rolex.

This piece, with serial 3034XXX, dates to 1972 and comes paired on a refined leather strap for that effortless vintage aesthetic. A timeless, no-date Rolex that wears far above its size and remains one of the most charming entry points into true vintage. As always, it includes our 2-year in-house warranty.

Technical Background

The 6426 is powered by the proven hand-wound Calibre 1225, a movement known for its reliability, slim profile, and classic Rolex engineering. The reference was produced for decades, but clean early-1970s examples—especially those kept in honest condition like this one—are getting noticeably harder to source. Lightness, simplicity, and pure Oyster DNA define the experience.
