The Rolex waterproof Oyster case came to market in 1926, changing the way people kept time while living an active lifestyle. The Oyster series predates many of the brand's more well-known tool watches, such as the Submariner and GMT, and boasts a very modest case size and a sophisticated, dress watch aesthetic. The ref. 6418 Rolex Speedking that you see here today is a rare and exceptional example of the early Rolex Oyster that was produced in the mid-1950s. Its feature set includes a manual-winding movement, an acrylic crystal, a lustrous yellow gold-plated case measuring 32mm in diameter, and a striking Ivory dial set with a yellow gold display, a Rolex logo at 12 o'clock, and luminous plots in a heavy patina.
