Old Precision, new to me.

First manual watch. A 34mm Rolex precision circa 1974. I love it almost as much as I love a manual transmission.

Thanks everyone! It is my smallest watch, but it doesn't feel too small. Great for dressy situations too.

Very classy looking! I really wish Rolex would bring back that design. its just so simple and elegant looking. I also love manual watches. To me, wearing a manual watch gives almost the same amount of enjoyment as driving a manual car.

I love those old Oysters. In my box there is an 1959 Oysterdate Precision. No bracelet though.

Congrats, your Oyster is flawless and awesome.
