1972 Rolex Oyster Perpetual Date 1500 – The Timeless Stainless-Steel Essential
A perfect expression of Rolex simplicity, this 1972 Oyster Perpetual Date Ref. 1500 delivers everything that makes the model a lifelong companion: clean lines, robust construction, and enduring style. The untouched silver sunburst dial — paired with original hands, crown, and evenly aged tritium — gives the watch a quietly elegant presence.
The 34 mm stainless steel Oyster case keeps things classic and versatile, while the dependable Cal. 3035 inside brings chronometer-grade reliability. Paired with an original Oyster bracelet, this is the kind of vintage Rolex that looks effortless today, tomorrow, and 50 years from now.
A true everyday icon.
