AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

This classic and rare vintage Rolex Oyster manual-winding men's watch, specifically model Reference 6480, was produced in the mid-1950s. Powered by the Calibre 1210 movement, renowned for its exceptional robustness and precision, it is considered by vintage watch enthusiasts to be one of the most reliable and purely designed manual-winding movements in Rolex history. After nearly 70 years, the even natural oxidation on the dial creates a layered effect under different lighting, giving it a truly vintage feel.
