A timeless icon with local heritage—this Rolex Datejust ref. 1601 is a standout example of classic elegance, housed in a two-tone steel and yellow gold case with its signature fluted bezel and Jubilee bracelet. What truly sets this piece apart is its original champagne pie-pan dial, untouched and gracefully aged over the decades. The warmth of the dial complements the gold indices and hands, and the subtle curvature of the pie-pan design adds vintage charm that modern pieces simply can’t replicate.

Adding to its collectibility is the rarity of its complete full set—original warranty certificate, green box, dated 11 May 1976. This is a Singapore-sold set, making it an especially meaningful piece for Singaporean collectors seeking a birth year or anniversary watch with provenance. Full set vintage Datejusts in this condition are increasingly hard to come by, and this one checks all the right boxes: authenticity, originality, and history. A refined choice for the collector who values timeless design with a local story to tell la!
