I was given this watch by my father and was wondering if anyone in here could identify it aside from it being a vintage Rolex. Thanks!

It looks like a super oyster, but I've never seen one without a crown and there are some things that look off. Definitely have it looked at by a AD.

Take it to the Rolex store - they should be able to identity it

For reference, this is a 50's era Super Oyster 17 model 6022:

Definitely a possibility

I’d suggest the crown looks a bit more modern then the rest of the watch too. But I’m no expert.

Hi, it's likely a "Bubble Back". Almost certainly a Rolex Authorized Dealer would be completely unhelpful, unfortunately. It is curious that it doesn't have the crown logo on the dial, nor any additional identifiers. It's possible that it's a "redial", meaning someone repainted the dial at some point and only added back the ROLEX word. This was not uncommon for vintage watches over the years.

Your best bet is to go to the Rolexforums and post the pic in the vintage section (https://www.rolexforums.com/forumdisplay.php?f=32). They'll ask you for pictures of the back of the watch too. Opening the caseback and seeing what it says on the underside of the back is key, as well as taking a look at the movement. That's the best way to ensure that the guts are at least legit Rolex.

The other two options would be to take it to a watch store that knows vintage, or to send it in to Rolex for servicing. It would cost a pretty penny for a Rolex service, but you'd get all the details on the model.
