Rolex precision Engine Turned Ref 6427

Rolex Oyster Precision ref. 6427 – 1960

Pure, understated and beautifully preserved. This Rolex Oyster Precision ref. 6427 is a textbook example of Rolex restraint at its best. In perfect condition, the watch presents with crisp case lines, a clean and well-balanced dial, and an overall freshness that is increasingly hard to find in early 1960s examples.

The ref. 6427 sits at the heart of Rolex’s manually wound Oyster lineage, offering a slightly slimmer and more elegant profile than later Precisions. Worn on a high-quality leather strap, this watch leans fully into its dress-watch character while retaining the robustness of the Oyster case. A timeless piece that works just as well today as it did over sixty years ago.

Technical background

The Oyster Precision ref. 6427 was produced during a transitional period for Rolex, when manually wound movements still defined the brand’s core identity. Simple, reliable and highly wearable, these models were designed for everyday use — which makes truly well-preserved examples like this one especially desirable today.
