Hi. I came across this picture in a Hodinkee article about the history of the oyster bracelet. I am interested in the reference of the two white/silver dial models. They appear to 38-40mm models compared to the GMt and the Explorer. Can anyone clarify please? Thanks. Maybe they’re just a 1018 and a 1019 but im not sure.

OK, definitely NOT 1019 (that's easy). Not 1018 (should be OCC or SCOC). Looking at the dials (though my eye sight is not what it used to be) I don't even see "perpetual" ('Oyster' on the top, and 'precision' on the bottom) - thus no date manual wind. Based on hands, I would say 1950s. Can't think of a correct serial for them.

I think the one on the left with a black strap is a 6422 Oyster Precision.

Forgot about the manual winds... the 6424 is a 36mm case so maybe thats it. Still would love to know if that larger case model in the picture, eapecially since it appears to be larger than 36mm and is manual wind.

The top one I believe is a 6424...I'm no expert so I could be wrong

6424, looks just like mine. The other is whatever a no-date 6694 is called. Nice watches
