-Description

The Datejust, Rolex's most famous automatic watch, was born in 1945.

It is widely known as a watch that is instantly recognisable from its distinctive appearance.

The Datejust mechanism, which instantly changes the date at midnight, is regarded as one of Rolex's three greatest inventions, together with the Oyster case and the automatic Perpetual mechanism, and the Datejust is the culmination of a collection that has them all.

Ref.1601 is a vintage model produced between the 1960s and late 1970s.

With its fluted bezel, jubilee bracelet and bar indexes, this model established the basic design of the Datejust, which has been handed down to this day.

The beautifully cut fluted bezel is made of 18k white gold, giving it a casually luxurious look.

The dial is a matt black dial.

It is in very good condition for a black dial of this age, with no peeling.

The hands and dial has tritium luminous,  with great patina.

The bracelet is Jubilee bracelet 62510H of the same age as the watch.

The watch also comes with a guarantee paper, which is rare for a Rolex watch of this age.

The movement is a automatic Cal. 1570 with a hack function.

It is highly accurate and durable, having passed chronometer standards, and the machine is easy to maintain, so it can be used with peace of mind.

This watch combines the ruggedness of a black dial with the elegance and refinement of a Datejust.

It has not been polished to preserve its vintage look.
