Key Product Information This 1977 Rolex Datejust has a robust 36 mm stainless steel Oyster case, with an engine‑turned (finely textured) steel bezel. The elegant silver dial is in the coveted “pie‑pan” style. Protecting said dial is a domed acrylic crystal, giving a clear view of the baton hour markers and magnifying the date window at 3 o’clock. The movement is Rolex's own calibre 1575, an automatic movement renowned for reliability and precision. Lastly, this particular watch is on a steel 6251H Jubilee five-link bracelet. Dimensions: 36mm wide, 12mm thick, 44mm lug-to-lug. Key Brand Information Rolex, founded by Hans Wilsdorf in 1905, revolutionised wristwatch design with the waterproof Oyster case and self-winding Datejust in 1945. The Ref. 1601—launched in the 1960s—showcases Rolex’s commitment to combining elegance, innovation and everyday practicality. Its understated steel case paired with a finely engine‑turned bezel offers a charming alternative to the more formal white or yellow gold fluted bezels. Authenticity & Condition All our Rolex timepieces undergo meticulous authentication. As this is a second‑hand vintage model, expect minor wear such as light patina on the dial or modest bracelet stretch—character marks that tell its genuine history. Vintage watches often thrive with careful servicing to retain both functionality and heritage. Shipping All shipping will require a form of photo ID & Proof of address.
