ROLEX Datejust Ref. 1603 Shantung dial – 1969
This Rolex Ref. 1603 from 1969 is a remarkable example of vintage luxury. Crafted from stainless steel, both the case and bracelet are in excellent condition, giving the watch a timeless appeal. What truly sets this WRISTCLASSIC apart is its rare and exceptional SHANTUNG dial. Named after a unique type of silk fabric originating from the Shandong province, Shantung silk is known for its plain weave and smooth yet subtly textured finish, closely resembling the fine structure of this dial. The dial itself is nearly flawless, with the original lume adding to its distinctiveness and charm. Unpolished, the case and bracelet show only minimal signs of wear. Powered by an automatic movement, this timepiece has recently been serviced and is running strong, keeping accurate time. A true WRISTCLASSIC from an iconic brand, this watch exemplifies the unmatched quality and elegance that make Rolex a leader in fine watchmaking.
