Rolex 6426 oyster from 1973

Let’s talk about one of the most underrated references in vintage Rolex

The reference 6426

This is a watch that when I go speak for universities about watches that I always talk about 

Why would I mention this when talking about watches compared to the stock market? Well, Because it defeats the basic idea people have of Rolex. Yet this is what Rolex is all about.

This is a simple watch, but that does not mean it is boring watch. The 34mm stainless steel oyster case is paired with a simple yet beautiful engine turned bezel

A no date dial, a handwound movement that is made to a standard of quality we all seek after in this day an age. That’s what this watch is all about. It just works, It always had worked and it will always keep working
