The Rolex Datejust doesn’t need an introduction. It’s one of the most iconic Rolex models, combining luxury and sportiness at an entry-level price. The Datejust can be worn by everybody at any occasion and therefore, we believe it's the perfect watch.

You might be familiar with the reference 1601, 1603 and 1600. Probably, you also know the successors of these references, like the 16014 or 16030.  Finally, the 16234, 16220 and 16200 may have gotten your attention too. However, what do you know about the earlier references like the 6305? This reference was introduced in the mid '50s, a little less than ten years after the introduction of the first reference 4467. This reference came in steel and very important to know is that it is the first reference with the fluted bezel as we know it nowadays. However, this piece has an 18k white-gold, coin edge bezel which is the old type. The Ovetonne we can offer you is carried out in stainless steel. The best part, however, is the white waffle dial of which we think you should know it has some very minor blemishes. Furthermore, the details take the cake: a date disc in red font, the alpha hands and the elegantly-shaped 6- and 9-hour position. All in all, this is a very collectible Datejust. 

Introduction

Rolex DatejustIn 1945 Rolex created the flagship Datejust to mark the company’s 40th anniversary. This model was the world’s first self-winding wristwatch with a date indication. With the Datejust, Rolex also introduced the iconic 5-piece jubilee bracelet, first in solid gold and later in bicolor and stainless steel. On the tenth anniversary of the Datejust in 1955, the magnifying ‘cyclops lens’ was introduced.
