Hi Michel, thanks kindly! The precision is a Rolex, reduced on its essentials, for every occasion :D

congratulatrion brother. hope one day i will get mine too

Fingers crossed !

@@GoldammerVintageWatches You have 20 fingers.

I recently came into possession of my father's 6426 champagne dial steel bracelet Oyster precision Rolex 1964 (vintage). What is its nominal or current value? The hands, dial, and case have some minor corrosion but it still winds and works.

We are happy that you like your piece

Thanks for you feedback Aaron! Means a lot to us! 🙏

Thanks for you huge feedback Robert! I also love the part with the selling prices. I’ll try to integrate it into our next videos, but it’s very difficult to find these information. Fingers crossed :D kind regards, Felix

Much thanks for your feedback ☺️🙏 have a great weekend!

@@GoldammerVintageWatches And you, thank you. 👍

✌️

Absolutely agree! Love those textures ⚡️

Thank you so much! It was a good decision 👍

I can understand why! It’s the epitome of a daily beater. How big is your collection?

@@GoldammerVintageWatches 25-30 total. Ranging in price between $500 - $2000. Grail will be a Patek. ;)

Nice :D Do you already know which Patek it should be ? Calatrava?

@@GoldammerVintageWatches Price matters for me but, yes, likely a Calatrava - I watched your video. Keep up the great work! 😇

Much thanks man! I will!!

Exactly, thank you :-)

Mine has silver dial with diamond markers & lume with like a railroad running around the outer dial ... on a nice leather strap though ... from my local pawnshop ...

My primary reason is to bring it back to its original form ..

Hi there, thanks for your kind feedback and gratulation to your first Rolex! The 6694 was produced from 1958 to 1989. Because of the diamond indexes I think it has to be out of the 1980s. We would recommend that you bring the watch to a really good watchmaker in your near. He can give you much more information.

Thanks for sharing !!

It’s 1978 or 1980s

Indeed! Classy love

Thanks for sharing this with us! How many watches do you have right now in your collection?

@@GoldammerVintageWatches around 10 (for now😃)

7 more than me 🤫🤤

@@GoldammerVintageWatches less is more?

Acreed

Beautiful ! Your watchmaker seems to make a good job 😀

Does your 6424 have the original bracelet and how much did you buy it for?

@@leomedina5614 No original bracelet. Rolex leather strap only. The prices are going up. Go and get one asap.

@@q3813 can you tell a difference between a 35mm and 36mm case?

Hey Leo, I found my 6424 on Ebay pre covid for a very inexpensive price without the steel bracelet. As luck would have it, a local family owned jeweler had a number of vintage steel Rolex bracelets in his safe. One matched my watch perfectly and he sold it to me for a very fair price. Sometimes, you get lucky. I had no idea how much this watch would go up in value these past 3 years. However, I bought it to wear not for an investment. Cheers mate!

For sure!!

If you prefer a watch with a date, there is also the Rolex Oysterdate 6694.

Beautiful daily beater! In steel with silver dial? It’s definitely worth it to think about replacing :-)

My dad bought the manual 6426 in 1958. Still have the paper. My dad's memory went and he went into the pool with it . I have it now. Need to get it cleaned and serviced. Beautiful watch

Unfortunately we don’t speak Spanish 😅

@@GoldammerVintageWatches Okay: It's a beautiful Watch. Very nice vintage Rolex. 😁👌

Haha much thanks 🙏😅😜

Haha best name ever 😎

@@GoldammerVintageWatches it’s an acquired taste 🤣🤷🏻‍♂️

Exactly 😂🤘🤘

💯

Haha i would take a lot more for this price :D

As far as we found out they were made entirely in-house. Do you have any other sources?

@@GoldammerVintageWatches Aegler is a separate company, but they made movements under Rolex and were closely associated with Rolex. So closely associated that they named themselves Manufacture de Montres Rolex. However, they also made movements for Gruen at least until the 30s, and weren't technically owned by Rolex until 2004 if I recall correctly. Aegler actually dates back to before Rolex does though, having origins back to 1878. They were generally called Rolex's in-house movement provider but that's not entirely the case. Two separate, closely related companies, both using the rolex name yet technically distinct entities. As far as I can tell Rolex didn't have any in-house movement capabilities and rather relied on Aegler for their movements. Except in the case of the very early Daytonas which used Valjoux 72s and later El Primero calibers. It's semantics really, but it's an interesting story. Without Aegler, there would be no Rolex. The Perpetual movement was from Aegler for Rolex's exclusive use.

@@GoldammerVintageWatches I'd send you some links but unfortunately KZfaq just removes all comments with links now.

Can you send it via Instagram?

Turn the hands either way. You’re safe. This classic three handed watches are designed to permit turning the hands backwards. That goes for both mechanical watches, and quartz.

Wenn dir englisch nicht so liegt hilft dir eventuell die Untertitel Funktion! :)

Not always, but mostly :)

@@GoldammerVintageWatches this is my next watch I would love to purchase. I have an Oysterquartz but I would love a precision with no date they are just attractive!!

Good decision! We also love them. Reduced to its essentials. :-)

@@GoldammerVintageWatches cheers mate! Keep up the good work!

The bext? 😅

I will see it.

Hey 👋 what do you mean ?

@@GoldammerVintageWatches The reason why Rolex is not cool anymore. I wish they manufactured entry level watches again but that's not going to happen, is it? Great video.

Ahhh. Totally agree, but have a look in their vintage pieces like the precision & oyster date models. In our opinion they are perfect entry level watches :-) thanks for your feedback!!
