The Datejust is our bread and butter here at Watts On Watches, but its smaller brother, the Rolex Date, is the perfect alternative if you’re looking for something slightly more unique. The Rolex Date comes in at 34 mm, the perfect vintage gents size. As a matter of fact, 34 mm is our marketing directors favorite size. Even though this Date comes on a sporty Oyster bracelet, these 19mm bracelets taper quite a bit more towards the clasp than the Oyster bracelets found on Datejusts and Submariners. We have also offered this one with a brown leather strap for an every day wearability. This gives the watch a wonderful classic look. We also love that the finely engraved engine turned bezel with the polished metal blocks at each hour marker which gives the watch an appealing geometric style. This ref. 1501 dates back to 1963 and features a silver sunbrushed dial with elongated stick markers.
