Vintage Datejust watches offer an incredible variety of dial configurations, with different dial colors, finishes, and marker options. Among these, the Shantung dial (also known as Brick or Mosaic) stands out as one of the most captivating and rare variations.

The name 'Shantung' refers to the horizontal, weave-like texture that resembles Shantung silk, which originated in China. The pie pan-style dial is in lovely condition, and as this is a rare ref. 1600, it features a smooth bezel that allows the dial to truly shine. This blue beauty is fitted with a folded Jubilee bracelet (ref. 6215H) with end links marked 55, and it has been fully serviced by our watchmaker.

We’re pretty sure this won’t be available for long—get in touch!
