The men's Rolex Oyster Perpetual Datejust ref. 1601 is the epitome of classic vintage dress watch style, featuring a two-tone case topped with a thicker acrylic crystal, a perpetual movement with a date mechanism, and a matching "Pie Pan" dial characterized by a subtle "step" at the edge of the dial. When it came to market, the used Rolex Datejust 1601 was initially waterproof up to 100 meters, preserving the movement within nicely and maintaining an accurate reading. Today, some of that resistance may have been lost, so we recommend keeping the case dry if possible.

Watch arrived in pristine condition. San N. was very helpful in helping me find an alternative strap for the watch. She went the extra mile and emailed me pictures of different strap options for my watch.
I could not have asked for better service than what I received. I had been searching for a specific vintage watch for quite some time and when I finally found it, Sarah and Alex were extremest helpful in making my purchase a seamless experience.
Super fast shipping. Watch was just as described. Super happy with my first Rolex from Bob’s!
Bobs watches hooked me up! Best experience ever! My transaction wasn’t going through, I gave them a call and they helped me through it! Costumer service itself deserves a 10+! Their inventory of watches is awesome! I got my first dream watch thanks to them! The watch shipped no longer than 24 hours! I’ll definitely keep making business with them for my 2nd Rolex!
Quick , item as described, excellent communication, easy transaction. Had the item verified by my jeweler and he was impressed by the quality and condition the vintage Rolex was in!!!!!
Somehow, this watch looks even better than it did in the photos. Great condition. My first Rolex! Thank you to everyone at Bob's Watches.
I really enjoyed the east of which Bob's Watches made the buying experience. I have been looking for this particular Rolex for some time. The moment I saw that they had what I was looking for, I purchased it, and with the wire transfer, it was at my door the next morning.
The whole process was seamless and as promised. The watch was in perfect condition and the presentation and packaging was outstanding. The Affirm process was seamless as well. I would definitely recommend Bob's Watches and do business with them again.
Stunning good looks. The slate dial is a bit more understated than the silver, gold, or black datejust dials, which I feel is important. The dial color pairs well with the bracelet or any brown or black leather straps.
Serial Number 2801936 is the one that I own. It is a complete set with box and papers. Unlike the version, shown in the photo, I have no luminescent hands. Great timepiece and has increased in value from the $255 Price Tag from June 28,1972. P.S. Not For Sale.
