1972 Oyster Perpetual Date 1500

A vintage Rolex Oyster Perpetual Date ref. 1500 dating to 1972, with a cohesive, tonal appearance from its stainless steel construction and silvered radial dial.

The tritium lume plots remain largely intact, flanking applied baton markers and matching hands. A central seconds hand and date aperture complete the clean, understated layout.

Powered by the Rolex caliber 1570 automatic movement, the watch is fitted with an Oyster bracelet with 357 end links. The bracelet retains plenty of life for continued wear, and a new acrylic crystal has been installed.

A classic and honest vintage Rolex with the kind of subtle aging and monochromatic character that suits the reference particularly well.
