Rolex Khanjar Two-Tone Datejust Reference 1601

I absolutely love steel Rolex Datejusts. I recently wrote about them in our blog ‘Don't Sleep On This: The Simple Vintage Rolex Datejust In Steel’. I’m constantly amazed by the quality and differentiations of the dials that Rolex used in vintage Datejusts over the decades. I have found the Rolex Datejust to be one of the most versatile watches a person can have.

This Datejust reference 1601 in two-tone steel and gold is no exception. This example showcases an attractive “soleil sunburst” dial, yet with a very special green Khanjar logo applied for the Sultanate of Oman. The watch dates to 1978 and features a 5.05M serial. The case measures 36mm in diameter and is paired on its original bracelet. The watch has been lightly polished.

The watch does not come with box and papers. We do not know the service history, but it is running well. It has just passed a water resistance test of 5 bar.

PRICE: $19,000 (Item: SBUXYT2499)
