No. 2438 ~ Smooth Bezel & Ghost Dial! Introducing a Rolex Datejust 1600 in great condition with all-tritium luminescence!

Hello!

Kaneko from Commit Ginza will introduce a recommended watch!

Today, we have a rare dial from the Vintage Datejust/Ref.1600!!

Rolex Datejust Ghost All Tritium
Ref.1600 Serial.28 (Manufactured around 1971-72)
Cal.1570 FF258/7836 Clasp 70.2 Caseback 71.4
Accessories: Watch only
SOLD OUT!!

This time, we are introducing the vintage Datejust "Ref.1600," which was manufactured from the 1960s to the late 1970s!

It exudes a calm vintage atmosphere, and since it's lighter and more comfortable to wear than current models, it comes highly recommended.

The charm of this model is, after all, its smooth bezel!

Another charm of this piece is its ghost dial!!

It's a dial characterized by a matte, pale gray color and white lettering,
where the brand logo and model name lettering seem to disappear depending on the angle of the light.

Since the white lettering is originally in a similar color, the text is difficult to see, but
at this angle, you can still make out the letters.

When a little light hits it...
the text gradually disappears.

How about that?
From this angle, the lettering at the 12 o'clock position is completely invisible.

What an interesting dial.
The retro atmosphere, unlike modern models, is simply irresistible.

The dial shows some age-related deterioration visible under a loupe,
but overall it maintains a beautiful condition!

The index luminous material is in perfect condition with no loss.

The slightly different shade of gray on the outer edge/stepped part of the dial
adds a nice touch.

All tritium luminous material.

The hands show natural aging typical of vintage pieces,
but the condition of the hand lume is excellent.

The condition shows wear commensurate with its age, but it is in good overall condition!!

As you can see, the mid-case is in good condition with no signs of over-polishing. 

The lugs are thick, making for a very impressive case!

The bracelet is a well-maintained folded link bracelet.

The buckle engraving, dated 70-2, matches the watch's age.

There's some natural stretch, but it fits perfectly on the wrist!

Wrist shot!!
The text is invisible, yet it's so stylish!!
Wearing a model like this casually makes you look incredibly cool.
