1969 Rolex Datejust (Ref. 1603) Silver Dial
A stunning classic! This specific 1969 DateJust Ref. 1603 retains it original dial, original engine turned bezel, folded link Rolex jubilee bracelet, and wonderful silver "Pie Pan" dial.
This piece would make a great start for a new vintage collector, or be a great addition to and expanding collection. We love the early Rolex DateJust for its simplicity and its classic sophistication. The engine turned bezel yields a classic and less dressed look compared to a gold fluted bezel more commonly found on the DateJust. In our opinion the engine turned bezel provides the wearer more flexibility in wearability; such as a casual social setting or a classy event, where the fluted bezel although stunning, lends itself to a more refined and dressed feel. This specific example just received a complete overhaul and is running flawlessly!
