The paper presents an attempt to suggest an alternative way of considering the fundamentals of Einstein's special relativity theory. Its formulation based on introducing an inertial reference system by rigid linking of clocks to a free entity to define proper time is self-contradictory since the operation of rigid linking involves interaction which is excluded by definition for a free entity. The way to overcome this inconsistency is proposed by postulating that each free entity (object, particle) has to be ideal clocks by itself, providing ideal internal time standards defined by the only intrinsic feature of a free entity, namely its proper mass which means that de Broglie's periodic phenomenon has to be considered as a fundamental principle needed to built the special relativity, along with the principle of indistinguishability allowing to define the particle's proper mass with ideal accuracy. Further, the internal distance standard is provided by passing to Compton wavelength and the velocity standard is introduced by means of Hubble's law. It is proposed to interpret the wave function as an internal system of reference undergoing distortion when external interaction is included.
