Hello,
I'm new to the forum. I was wondering if someone was able to help me identify what type and model number of Rolex this is in the photo attached. It was my fathers Rolex that he purchased in appx. 1954 in Japan when he was stationed there. It had a white face and was a manual wind. He wore it for years but sold it awhile ago. He has since passed. I would like to track down what it was a purchase one just like it. Unfortunately this is the clearest picture I have of it.
Thanks for any help!

My best guess, based on the shape, would be a manual wind Precision.

Go to google and enter, "1950s white oyster precision" then click images.
