Hi, I'm listing my vintage Rolex Datejust for sale. The reference number is 1603 and the serial number dates the watch to 1969. I bought the watch two months ago from a reputable store in NYC. The store had serviced the watch and issued a 1 year warranty dated Aug 31, 2017, hence there is 10 months remaining on the warranty. The watch is telling perfect time, well within COSC specifications. The watch itself is in great condition for its age. It has a tritium (T Swiss T) dial, and the lume plots by the indices exactly match the lume on the hands. There are no lume imperfections and all lume is fully intact. There are no scratches or marks dial or on the crystal. In the macro photos, it looks like there's a scratch on the crystal by the cyclopse, but this was a piece of linen thread which I wiped off. The watch is in incredible condition and the bracelet does have some stretch, but is very good considering its age. The watch comes with both inner and outer boxes (with the "1603" sticker on the outer box), original Rolex papers (with reference and serial number that clearly match those show on the watch case between the lugs), both the green Datejust tag and the red Rolex tag, as well as a tag that says "Japan Watch Importers Association", and the Rolex translation card, the green Rolex cardholder, and the certificate of authenticity and 1 year warranty. The Rolex papers are original and from 1969, and are in Japanese. They are in the form of a booklet, where the first page shows the reference number and serial number, and the rest of the pages profile all the different Rolex models and COSC testing standards. I have plenty of solid references. I'm happy to provide more pics. Thanks for the space CanWatchCo.
$4,500. Full return if not satisfied.
