1969 Rolex Oyster Date 1500 in 18kt Black Crown

| | | 34.0mm

Sale price€11.000,00

The reference 1500 is typically found in steel, which makes this solid 18kt yellow gold execution from 1969 an absolute executive rarity. Adding to its mystique is its rare "Black Crown" classification—a term used by collectors for vintage gold pieces where the dial script, hands, or markers feature deep black enamel or oxidation detailing that contrasts sharply against the golden backdrop. It is a powerful, low-profile statement of vintage luxury.

Rolex

Founded in 1905 by Hans Wilsdorf in London, Rolex quickly became a leader in watchmaking, renowned for its innovations, such as the Oyster, the world’s first waterproof wristwatch, and the Perpetual movement, which introduced self-winding technology. Famous collections like the Submariner, Daytona, and Datejust have solidified Rolex as a symbol of luxury and precision, worn by explorers, athletes, and professionals worldwide.

Over the years, Rolex has become synonymous with quality and reliability, often seen as a benchmark for fine watchmaking. The brand’s attention to detail and mastery of engineering have made Rolex watches highly coveted by collectors. Rolex has also been a pioneering force in the development of professional tools for specific activities, such as diving, aviation, and motorsports, establishing a legacy that endures to this day.
