Original bronze dial with gold baton indices

Original bronze colour dial with gold baton indices. Referred to as “pie pan” dials due to the slope towards the edge of the dial. This detail is why the four digit Datejust references are much admired amongst collectors. The dial is marked “T Swiss T” referring to the original tritium luminous used on the dial. The dial has not been touched by us and remains in excellent original condition.

stainless steel case with solid gold fluted bezel

Ref. 1601 “two tone” with stainless steel case and solid yellow gold fluted bezel. The 2.9 million serial number in-between the lugs. This reference also indicates that the case is fitted with a plexiglass crystal with a “Cyclops” magnifying the date display. The case & bracelet have been professionally polished by us giving the watch a stunning aesthetic. The yellow gold bezel has been sympathetically polished by hand so that it retains the original fluted edges. This is one of the reasons why our watches are presented in the highest quality in terms of condition. The crown is an original gold Rolex Oyster Twinlock screw down crown.

Two Tone Rolex Jubilee bracelet

Original two tone steel & solid gold Rolex Jubilee bracelet. Bracelets can be resized to fit on request.

The Rolex Datejust is one of the most quintessential yet understated Rolex models produced

Originally launched in 1945, it has remained a timeless classic and is renowned for its quality and functionality.
