Datejust "Sigma Dial"

Greay Sigma Dial Datejust
This beautiful Datejust, reference 1601, features a rare distinction. It has a so-called "Sigma Dial".
In the 1970s, l’Association pour la Promotion Industrielle de l'Or (APRIOR), an association of selected Swiss watch manufacturers decided to specially highlight watches with gold components. This was done with a small symbol, the Greek sigma.
Above all, this statement was made to distinguish itself from the then-emerging low-cost competition from quartz watches. The sigma was intended to indicate the use of gold components, creating a symbol of luxury and quality.
The magnificent case with sharp edges shows only very slight signs of wear. The hands and dial are in very good condition.
The original Jubilee folding bracelet is also in very good condition, consistent with its age. The clasp is from an earlier date.
The watch has been fully serviced by our atelier.
