ROLEX OYSTER PERPETUAL DATEJUST STEEL & GOLD 'PIE PAN' DIAL REF. 1601 CIRCA 1963
The Rolex Datejust is the ‘poster boy’ for Rolex. Globally recognised as one of the most popular watches in the world and certainly one of the most versatile. As a luxury watch it can be worn by anyone, for any occasion and at an achievable price point for a watch of its quality. The Rolex Oyster Perpetual Datejust, since its release in 1945, has seen a multitude of different case materials from stainless steel to platinum, dial variations of every colour under the sun, set in an array of different styles, bezel variations and repeatedly improved mechanics. Whether you like the model or not, there is no denying that a Rolex Datejust is the definition of a ‘timeless watch’.
This particular reference is a 1601, it has a striking silver ‘pie pan’ dial with gold ‘stick’ hour markers, lume plots and clear black type. The watch is fitted with gold hands, a date window at 3 o’clock and an unusual gold bezel. The distinctive bezel is mounted on the 36mm stainless-steel oyster case which is in great condition with only minor wear such as hairline scratches. It is paired with a black leather strap and has a gold plated Rolex buckle. Housed behind the screw down case back is an automatic Rolex movement which is running well.
