Rolex Oyster Precision ref. 6427 – Vertical Brushed Dial (1970)

A beautifully honest Rolex Oyster Precision ref. 6427 featuring the rarely seen vertical brushed silver dial. The dial shows a crisp, understated texture that plays subtly with the light, giving this classic Oyster a refined tool-watch character. Paired with its original Rolex rivet bracelet, this example remains very close to how it would have been worn in the late 1960s / early 1970s.

The watch has passed a waterproof test, adding practical reassurance while remaining true to its vintage nature. A clean, balanced manual-wind Rolex that represents everything the Oyster Precision stands for: simplicity, robustness, and timeless design.

Technical background

The reference 6427 is powered by Rolex’s manual-wind calibre 1225, known for its reliability and slim construction. Produced around 1970, this reference sits at the end of the classic rivet-bracelet era, making original examples increasingly hard to find.
