1953 Rolex Speedking Precision (Ref. 6020)
When you think of Rolex, probably the watches that come to mind are names like Submariner, Daytona, or GMT. Further down the list, and maybe not on the list at all, is the little-known "Speedking". A manually wound, unisex, mid-century Rolex. A fantastic-looking member of arguably the most important family in horological history, that of the Rolex Oyster.
