MAGNIFICENT APPEARANCERolex Stainless Steel 1950's Model 6426 THE GOOD:Model 6426 manual wind 17Jewel Rolex measures 35mm in width (without the crown) X 41.25mm in length(lug to lug). This watch has just been fully serviced with a complete overhaul and is keeping excellent time and is running great.The... jet black dial is 100% original and it is a beauty! Theere is a small sliver between 5 & 6 below the minute track but is hardly noticeable. Engine turned bezel, signed screw down crown, & screwback Oyster case.A beautiful vintage Rolex watch...
THE BAD:The screw down crown requires bit of maneuvering when engaging. When pushing the crown in, you need to move the crown back and forth a bit until it catches the threading. It screws down properly once engaged.
THE UGLY:The stainless steel case has been tampered with. My guess is that someone thought that this was a snapback case and tried to pry it off. As a result there are 2 holes between the lugs (see photo). Watchmaker says the gasket effectively covers the holes and the watch can be safely worn.
Value to be determined by the auction price.Bidding starts at $1.00
Good Luck!
