The Inside Story
THE TROPICAL ROLEX DATE 1500
The Rolex Date reference 1500 is a cool 34mm watch that has become more of a focus with collectors over the past year or so, especially when it has a special twist like this example. The black gilt dial has turned a beautiful tropical brown that fades from left to right across the dial. Catch it at the right angle in the sun…wow – it’s just beautiful. One interesting point to note is that the T SWISS T designation at the bottom edge of the dial has had the ‘T’s added later in a silver font that was applied on top of the lacquer. Always interesting details with vintage Rolex! The watch retains a strong case and has its original smooth bezel in very nice condition. The watch will come on a folded link Oyster bracelet reference 7835 with correct 357 endlinks. The watch has been fully serviced by our watchmaker will come with an additional strap of your choice from our web shop*
