Offered here for sale is a beautiful vintage Rolex Oyster Perpetual Date, the reference 1500, with a lovely silver sunburst dial.
The dial is very crisp and flawless. The original lume plots remain big and complete and have aged into a lovely creamy hue patina. The original hands are matching.
The 34mm excluding the original crown all stainless steel case remains in thick, sharp condition, most probably remaining unpolished or with a very old sleeve polishing. The stainless steel smooth bezel remains in the same condition, letting show some signs of wear. The waterproof case back shows some signs, again, from normal use.
The watch is running well and keeping time, although service history is unknown.
The original acrylic crystal with cyclops lens has some minor scratches that could be easily buffed away.
It is suited on a 19mm Oyster 78350 stainless steel bracelet with 557 end links and clasp code B that shows stretch, specially on the lower links near the clasp. Note it has 10 links and it will fit a 16cm wrist on its largest position.
This is indeed a great opportunity to own an entry level Rolex that will remain timeless throughout the years and that is perfect for any occasion.
Macros of the dial and case are available under request.
