Why This Watch Matters Again, we have found a beautiful Datejust for you that stands out from the rest – here you get a perfect sunburst grey dial with beautiful contrasting white indexes and text. The Full Story The Datejust is undoubtedly a Rolex bestseller, offering everything the brand stands for in one beautiful package. Both elegant and sporty, the Datejust gives you a water-resistant, chronometer-certified watch that is also practical for everyday. The 1603 we found goes one step further, offering a shimmery grey sunburst dial with white text and rarely seen white indexes that add a striking contrast. On top of all of this, you get a great 36 mm case and a very comfortable Jubilee bracelet. With this example, it's clear to see why the Datejust is so popular.

The handset and date disc are also in outstanding condition. This example comes with a folded Jubilee bracelet that has been slightly extended – as you would expect for a watch from the 1970s; one thing to note is that the clasp is a replacement part from Rolex. The case is in overall good condition, however it does show signs of polishing, as evidenced by the thickness of the lugs.
