1962 Rolex Datejust (Ref. 1601) Silver Dial

The Rolex Datejust is one of the most iconic and most beloved Rolex watches ever made, even though the Datejust was launched in 1945 it has remained a timeless classic and is instantly recognizable as an item of refined quality and functional design. The Datejust can be worn just as easily with a suit as it can be with jeans and a tee-shirt. The DateJust would make a great start for a new vintage collector, or be a great addition to an expanding collection.

We love the early Rolex DateJust for its simplicity and its classic sophistication. This specific 1962 Datejust Ref.1601 retains it original dial silver  SWISS only “Pie Pan”  dial which is sought after among collectors. The case is sharp and the lugs are thick, free from any blemishing or scratches. The original white Gold bezel is also stunning and original to the watch as is the folded link jubilee Bracelet which shows minimal stretch and possessed the “Big Crown” clasp which is era correct for this specific Timepiece. This piece would make a great start for a new vintage collector, or be a great addition to and expanding collection.
