Rolex Precision 6424 - Black Patina Dial.
The Oversized Manual Wind Oyster
The Rolex Precision reference 6424 is an outlier from its era, and that is precisely its appeal. While most time-only Rolex models from the 1950s and 60s settled at a more modest 34mm, the 6424 used an oversized 36mm Oyster case. This "Big Oyster" provides a more contemporary wrist presence while retaining the clean, distilled essence of a simple, manual-wind watch. It is a reference that stands out for its confident proportions and its commitment to pure, uncluttered timekeeping.
An Even And Honest Patina
This example is defined by its black dial, which has developed an even and consistent patina over the decades. The surface shows slight, honest discoloration that gives the watch a distinct character impossible to replicate. The dial is complemented by a set of classic alpha hands and dagger hour markers, foundational design elements of the period. Paired with a 1960s Rolex Jubilee bracelet, the entire package presents as a cohesive and authentic vintage piece.
Untouched And Period Correct
The stainless steel case and dial are in great cosmetic and untouched condition. All components are original, including the signed Rolex crown, dial, movement, and caseback. The bracelet complements the watch well. As with every watch we offer, this piece has been verified as mechanically sound and is ready to wear.
The Daily Ritual Of A 36mm Classic
This watch is for someone who appreciates the physical connection that comes with a manual-wind movement. The daily ritual of winding the crown creates a bond between owner and object that an automatic watch cannot offer. Its 36mm size makes it incredibly versatile, bridging the gap between smaller vintage pieces and modern sport watches. It is a subtle, classic Rolex that offers a more considered and engaging ownership experience.

What Our Clients Say About Us
I knew I was gonna like Danny, based on his name, but nothing could’ve prepared me for how great of an experience this was. He had the most beautiful 70s Seamaster Cosmic on his website and I was set to be married 2 days later - I arranged to buy it but before leaving we both realized it needed to be serviced. I panicked, because I was literally buying this for my wedding, and Danny being the legend he is, loaned me a nearly identical Seamaster to make sure I could get through the event Never have I had someone go so above and beyond for me, especially while purchasing one of the lesser priced items in their inventory. He serviced my watch and exchanged it with me after the wedding on a super fast turnaround timeline. I would sincerely recommend you visit this guy, you will not be disappointed Edit: adding a pic of the loaner (two tone) and the owner (crosshair)
Great service and shop. Danny and his team were incredibly accommodating, professional, and kind. Great selection of vintage watches. Their store is the hidden gem in the diamond district.
This was my first real luxury watch purchase, a Rolex 15200 Date 34mm, I own Tissots and a Laco, but those are entry level luxury watches. I found Danny’s Vintage Watches online, and had great feedback both on Google, Chrono24 and the Reddit watch community. So decided to give him a shot as buying online can be a crap shoot. Ordered Monday night, was at my doorstep Friday morning. Despite the watch being over 30 years old, serial number says it’s from 91, the watch looked new. Didn’t come with box or papers, and was shipped in a plastic sleeve wrapped in bubble wrap. Danny was always available to answer questions. I’ll be buying from Danny again for the next purchase…saw a couple of Speedmasters on his site I liked….
Can't recommend Danny's vintage watches enough!!! My first Omega ever and im in love have been wearing every day since I purchased it. Danny's shop is a must visit if you are in NYC looking for a watch!!!
