Why This Watch Matters The Oyster Perpetual Date reference 1500 is a perfect daily wear for both men and women, and a great first watch for anyone considering a vintage piece. The Full Story The Rolex reference 1500 captures the essence of why the Rolex Oyster Perpetual series remains a classic today. Especially with a gorgeous patina on a silver dial, it's seamless on anyone’s wrist, and in any occasion, from running around town to a high-profile business meeting. This piece is fitted in a smooth stainless steel Oyster case with screw-down crown, which allows the wearer to cruise through most adventures that come their way. And of course, we have to point out the date display with the Cyclops window – the genius design by Rolex to magnify the date and enhance legibility. The Jubilee bracelet allows for a comfortable fit and a great look.
