Early-70s Rolex Oyster Perpetual Date ref. 1500, solid 14k gold with a clean champagne dial—a great entry point into vintage Rolex. Same reliable automatic movement as the Datejust, just a bit simpler, and in genuinely nice shape for its age.

The 14k case measures 34 mm and is in great overall condition with untouched beveled edges.

The dial is in excellent condition.

The automatic movement is running well.

On a generic lizard skin strap secured by a generic gold-tone buckle.

Excellent!
