Rolex

1501 "Big Logo"

This is a "Big Logo" model, characterized by a significantly enlarged ROLEX logo, found only on Oyster Perpetual Dates manufactured between approximately 1960 and 1962, spanning about three years.

It encapsulates the charm of vintage Rolex, featuring wedge-shaped indices, alpha hands, a single "Swiss" designation, and an applied crown mark.

This particular piece has a white dial that has aged beautifully to a creamy hue, perfectly complementing the blued steel second hand.

With its engine-turned bezel, it boasts a presence that belies its 34mm size, making it a model we highly recommend even to those who haven't considered a 34mm watch before.
