About the watch

In the rich and long history of Rolex, not many model lines can pride themselves in being as significant as the Datejust. Born in 1945, the Datejust has seen many variations of cases, bracelets, and dials combinations. This specific timepiece sports the most timeless configuration of Datejust, with its silver dial, fluted white gold bezel and jubilee bracelet. It remains probably one of the most sought-after and versatile timepieces of all time. The dial is in fantastic condition and has the distinctive feature of being a so-called ‘sigma’ dial, recognisable by the sigma letters at 6 o’clock, surrounding the ‘T Swiss T’. This version was produced for a shorter period than standard dials, giving this model increased collector’s value. The tritium hour markers and hands evoke a vintage feel and add to the charm of the watch. Both the case and the strap are in superb condition. This piece is the perfect starting point for a collection and a must-have for any serious watch enthusiast.

The case has a lot of material and sharp edges. It has been very well preserved.

The buckle and bracelet are in excellent condition too. The bracelet is the original one, reference 6251H. It has little stretch.

The watch is sold alone, without box or papers. We provide a Veritas travel pouch.

The movement is the original caliber 1570, which runs well.
