Launched in 1945 to commemorate Rolex’s 40th anniversary, the Datejust is a classic timepiece. This particular stainless steel and 18-carat gold Rolex Oyster Perpetual Datejust features a two-tone, coin-edge bezel and a champagne dial. The original dial remains untouched and in excellent condition, featuring all the original Tritium lume plots, which have toned to a light ivory color. The classic serif text in black really stands out from the dial, and is complimented by the outer minute track with small hash marks. The classic, solid gold baton hands also contain the original luminous material, which matches the plots perfectly and responds the same under ultraviolet light.
The watch is powered by a Rolex, Swiss-made, twenty-seven jewel automatic caliber 3035 movement, with completely flat dials. It’s fitted to a later —and less common — Rolex Oyster stainless steel and 18-carat gold bracelet with four removable links in place. The original Rolex papers and green wallet are included.
Because this watch is a vintage, one-of-a-kind piece, all purchases are final sale and excluded from any promotions.
