Rolex 1501 Perpetual Date - Blue Dial

FOR SALE: ROLEX DATE 1501 (1965)

We’re pleased to offer this 1965 Rolex Date 1501, a beautifully preserved vintage example featuring a striking blue dial and the iconic engine-turned bezel. The reference 1501 is highly regarded for its balanced proportions and elegant yet sporty character, making it a timeless choice within the classic Rolex lineup.

The 34mm stainless steel case wears exceptionally well on the wrist and retains clean, well-defined lines. The rich blue dial shows attractive depth and character, complemented by applied baton hour markers and original Dauphine hands, perfectly in line with the mid-1960s aesthetic. The engine-turned bezel adds a refined texture that enhances the watch’s vintage charm without overpowering its design.

The watch is powered by a reliable Rolex automatic movement and runs strong and smoothly, ready for regular wear or thoughtful collecting. It is fitted to a stainless steel Rolex Oyster bracelet with pin-construction links and a folding clasp, offering a solid and period correct feel on the wrist.
