1940’s or 1950’s?

Hi, I have inherited my late father’s Rolex Oyster Royal which was the only watch he owned and wore throughout his long life, he was 87. Try as I might however I have been unable to date it or indeed find any photo online of this exact model/specification. I now wear it everyday. Any information would be very welcome.
