This configuration is particularly prized by collectors.\nThe 36 mm steel case, with its characteristic fluted bezel in white gold, houses the Rolex automatic caliber 1575, a robust, reliable and precise movement, certified as a chronometer by the Bureau officiel de contrôle de la marche des montres.\nThe example we are offering stands out for the superb, pronounced and even patina of the luminescent material (tritium-based) on the hour markers and hands – a sought-after natural evolution that lends the dial a unique depth and warmth, through its contrast with the shimmering blue background.\nThe original Jubilee bracelet reference 6251H with folded links and 55 end links (buckle code 3\/69, for production during the 3rd quarter of 1969), with its handsome clasp cover known as the “shell”, ideally completes the ensemble.\nThis Datejust 1601 is preserved in superb overall condition and has undergone a complete service by a watchmaker specialising in vintage calibers. It runs to the strictest tolerances.\nAn exceptional 1601.","brand":"Rolex","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54863775269187,"sku":"6DQ9","price":8900.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0759\/1378\/9763\/files\/6DQ9-Superbe-Rolex-Datejust-ref-1601-en-acier-de-1969-Cadran-Bleu-Shantung-Mosa-que-Front-1.jpg?v=1791199331","url":"https:\/\/amplitudewatches.co\/en\/products\/superb-1969-rolex-datejust-ref-1601-in-steel-blue-shantung-mosaic-dial-6dq9","provider":"Amplitude","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
