One of the more seldom seen classic vintage Rolex watches is the Oyster Precision as Rolex made most watches of this style with a date.

It features a much thinner profile than the Perpetual models - its understated, elegant and classic design contrast the "busier" look of some of the modern Rolex watches.

And this Oyster Precision has a little larger diameter than an Oysterdate and Oyster Perpetual non-Datejust watches - it's diameter is just one millimeter smaller than a Datejust.

We are proud to offer this all-original example in superior condition.

Its case presents as virtually scratch-free. And its original and untouched silver linen dial is just short of perfect mint. Our watchmaker has disassembled the entire watch down to the last screw and freshly serviced it and replaced its waterproofing gaskets with new genuine Rolex seals. It winds smoothly and is keeping very accurate time.

For the finishing touch it has just been meticulously detailed making it ready for immediate enjoyment.

Included with the purchase is a one-year C.O.T. international warranty on the movement and its function, a custom printed Connoisseur of Time Certificate of Authenticity, and a new timing certificate attesting to its performance.

Note: Published examples of this model can be found in Osvaldo Patrizzi's work Rolex, Collecting Wristwatches, 2001 Edition, Vol. 2, pg. 362.
