Rolex Datejust with the rare Shantung dial

Here is a great looking gents vintage Rolex watch that is unlikely to be seen again any time soon – the Rolex Datejust with the rare Shantung dial.

The Rolex Shantung dial was made by weaving raw silk thread in an irregular way across the dial and was made for only a very short time in the 1970’s and as it was made for the Asian market, rarely surfaces in the West so it is a real treat to find such a rare and beautiful example such as this blue Shantung dial here.

The watch itself is a classic Rolex Oyster Perpetual Datejust, reference 1570 made in stainless steel and fitted on the Rolex Jubilee band. Measuring 36mm across plus the Rolex screw down crown, this Rolex is the perfect size to wear day or night.

Inside is the 26 jewelled automatic Rolex calibre 1570 that has been fully serviced and comes with our twelve month warranty and of course runs perfectly.

However it is the great looking blue Shantung dial that really makes this Rolex stand out from all the other Rolex Datejust watches. This dial is just spectacular and is even more highlighted with the smooth bezel so all your attention is on that fabulous blue Shantung dial.

With the case still measuring the iconic 36mm plus the Rolex screw down crown and fitted on the Rolex Jubilee band, this watch has just come back from a full service of the 26 jewelled Rolex automatic calibre 1570 and comes with our twelve month warranty.

If you have been after a Rolex Datejust with a difference, then this might just be the one.
