Collection: Rolex 1601
The Rolex Datejust 1601 remains one of the most iconic and sought-after references in the world of vintage watches. Produced primarily between the 1950s and 1970s, its known for its perfect proportions and the signature fluted bezel, this 36mm masterpiece offers a timeless aesthetic that transitions perfectly from formal wear to casual daily use.
Why the Reference 1601 Stands Out
The 1601 is celebrated for its specific design language, adding a unique depth that modern references lack. Typically found on the elegant Jubilee bracelet, the 1601 is most famous in its stainless steel configuration with an 18k gold fluted bezel.
Pricing and Collectability
The Rolex 1601 is widely considered the best entry point into vintage Rolex collecting.
- Starting Price: Approximately €4,800 for the watch in excellent condition.
- Full Sets: Collectors seeking a "Full Set" (including original box and papers) can expect to invest €6,000 or more, depending on the rarity of the dial and the tightness of the bracelet.
