Rolex Datejust Grey Sigma ref. 1601 circa 1970 (serial 245…)
The Datejust is quintessential Rolex. Not only are the 1960-1970’s variations of this model with pie-pan depth and open midcentury font in the datewheel exceptionally unique, but the dials often don refined colors and patina. This one has a cadet grey sigma dial notable for gold markers framed in an 18k gold fluted bezel and stainless steel case: two-tone.
The 1600 variation points to a smooth bezel. The 1601 is a gold fluted one and 1603 sports an engine turned steel bezel. Today, the Oyster Perpetual series is hands down the most popular of the crown and the OP is some one the original dna.
While service history is unknown, the automatic non-quickset movement is showing healthy data. The case has minimal signs of polish and light wear—the only notable is that the hands are replacements and do not glow.
