1975 Rolex Two-Tone Datejust (Ref. 1601) Silver "Sigma" Dial

The Rolex Datejust is one of the most iconic and beloved Rolex watches ever made. This classic dress watch has been produced by the Swiss luxury watchmaker since 1945 and has remained a timeless classic that is instantly recognizable as an item of refined quality and functional design. The Datejust was designed for everyday wear, and its sleek and elegant design makes it one of the most universally loved watches for both men and women.

A Sigma dial is a Rolex dial named for the letters printed at the bottom of the dial at the 6 o'clock position. Most Rolex dials are commonly marked with “T Swiss T,” under the 6 o'clock marker; however, a Sigma dial is marked “σ T SWISS T σ.” This signifies the use of gold components within the dial.

There's so much to love about this 70s Datejust reference 1601! This two-tone example is especially well preserved and delivers everything you want from an early dress watch, from the excellent yellow gold fluted bezel, and desirable lume patina to the sigma silver dial. This is a perfect dress piece that sets itself apart from the crowd as an understated statement of individuality.
