This is truly the genesis for the entire Rolex brand. The very first Rolex models were called ‘Oysters’ which was owed to their innovative three part case that all screwed into each-other. That is where the fluted bezel actually derives from, being screwed down into the top of the case to secure the crystal with a gasket - as well as the grooves on the oyster case back. All makes sense now - right?\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThe piece that we have here, called an \u003cem\u003eOyster Perpetual\u003c\/em\u003e, is a descendant of those early watches, utilizing a water-resistant \u003cem\u003eOyster\u003c\/em\u003e case, an automatic-winding movement, and nothing else. No frills — purely a functional timekeeping device.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"\"\u003e\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThis Reference 6532 dates to circa 1957 and contrary to our prior comment about being a \"no frills\" watch, does possess a beautiful silver 'sector' dial within its steel case. Coming in at 34mm in diameter, it comes to us in excellent overall condition, having been gently previously polished in the past with a seemingly unpolished 'smooth' steel bezel. The Oyster bracelet is a correct, albeit slightly later unit and and shows matching wear. The dial, however, is the real treat with this piece. Silver in color, it features beautiful 'concentric' finishing in the center section with a satin ring on the outside where the applied indices sit. Tying everything together is an 'alpha' handset with a blued steel seconds hand that perfectly aligns with the minute track on the outer edge of the inner section of the dial.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"product-info__block-item\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"prose\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"product-info__block-item\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"prose\"\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDespite being ‘entry-level’ these offer a ton of character and remain an overlooked part of the important history of Rolex on their journey to the powerhouse brand that they are today.
