Description from the seller
Today we are glad to offer this beautiful Rolex Oyster Perpetual Date Ref. 1500 – Yellow Gold
The Rolex Ref. 1500 / 8 in solid 18k yellow gold represents a rare and refined expression of mid-century Rolex design. Produced primarily in the 1960s and 1970s, this reference blends robust Oyster case architecture with the warm luster of gold, offering both tool-watch durability and understated luxury.
Powered by the Caliber 1570 automatic movement, known for its precision and reliability, this model embodies the golden era of Rolex mechanical engineering. Its 34mm case — a balanced size by vintage standards — offers versatile wearability, while details such as the fluted bezel, Cyclops date magnifier, and gold dial with beautiful "bridge" indexes, enhance its appeal to purists and aesthetes alike.
The Blue bend in crocodile leather is used but in great conditions, and gold plated buckle with logo.
As solid gold Rolex Date models are increasingly sought after, the 1500 stands out for its timeless proportions, exceptional build quality, and growing rarity in all-original condition. Whether added to a curated vintage collection or worn as a daily statement of heritage and taste, the Ref. 1500 in yellow gold is a worthy acquisition.
Own a classic. Wear history.
