One of the desirable vintage Rolex watches right now is the Oysterdate Precision due to the fact that its understated and classic design contrast the busier look of some of the modern Rolex watches. It's a watch that is perfectly at home being worn everyday or only for special occasions. Produced from the early 1950's into the 1980's, it was a strong commercial success for Rolex, winning a large following.

Today's offering showcases this c. 1970 midsize Rolex Oysterdate Precision. As a midsize watch it suits both a woman looking for a full size watch or a man looking for a small vintage watch. The watch comes on its original Rolex Oyster bracelet.

It is fully Rolex and presents in true expertly restored condition.

Powering the watch is Rolex's caliber 1225 handwound movement with date.

The dial has been perfectly refinished. As part of the restoration the movement has been freshly fully overhauled and is running true.

A four and a half decade old Rolex that presents almost like new on the wrist.
