SOLD OUT!!

This time we are introducing a vintage Datejust that was produced from around 1960 to around 1979!

The Ref. 1601 is a classic vintage model with an attractive dial that is one step lower on the outer periphery and a jubilee winding.

It exudes a calm atmosphere unique to vintage,
It's lighter than the current model and is easy to wear, so I recommend it.

The most attractive feature of this watch is the mirror dial!!
Its beautiful mirror-like shine is attractive, and it is one of the most popular vintage models.
This is a rare dial with few in stock.

What's more, this particular watch has a brown-colored dial, giving it a very cool tropical mirror finish!
The 1601 mirror dial itself is rare, but
The tropically-inspired mirror dial makes it even more rare!

Important point! The glossy finish of the dial is still there.
It is a shiny mirror dial that you don't see very often.

The dial is in good condition up to the edge of the outer periphery, which is one step lower.
The index luminous material is also in perfect condition with no missing parts.

This dial condition is definitely rare!

The luminous material is all tritium.
The hands also have an exquisite aging effect.

The gold lettering on the tropical dial is just amazing.
So cool!

The subtle gradation changes are also a nice touch.

The condition is good, but there are scratches from use.
The case is a solid and impressive piece.

As you can see, the middle case
It is in good condition and has maintained its original form.

The lug legs are thick and look great!

The bracelet comes with a good condition jubilee.

This belly buckle is so adorable!!
The buckle is engraved with the year 1969, which is a little later.

Wrist shot!!
A glossy tropical mirror that ages like no other!
This is an extremely cool item!

Vintage Datejust "Ref. 1601/66"
This is an exquisite tropical mirror that looks cooler the more you look at it!
It is definitely rare to find a piece that exudes such a great atmosphere with its mirror condition, gloss, and aging!
For customers looking for the atmospheric 1601/Tropical Mirror Dial,
Please consider this.
