Oyster Perpetual Date Dial "Mosaic"

Rolex | Ref. 1500

Sold

Gorgeous Blue Mosaic Dial!

The Oyster Date is actually considered the little brother of the Datejust – but this example effortlessly leaves many Datejusts behind.

The dreamlike mosaic dial in iridescent blue draws all eyes. Depending on the light, it plays between light and dark blue – a fascinating interplay of colors that is second to none. The subtle patina at 6 o'clock and around the date window is also particularly special, giving the watch additional charm and character. Such a dial is a true rarity.

The original tritium luminous material on the dial and hands is completely intact and ensures an authentic vintage look.

The case is in very good condition, with only superficial, light signs of wear – no deep scratches or dents. The original Oyster bracelet, stamped with 3/68, is also impressive: It shows hardly any stretch and is in just as excellent a condition as the case.

A special highlight: The original papers are still present (without dealer stamps) – a rarity.

The watch has been fully serviced by our atelier and thoroughly tested technically.. It comes with a 1-year warranty.
