Condition Report
Condition Report
Case:
This example features thick, symmetrical lugs and chamfers. Light scratches adorn the case and the edges are relatively sharp, but it was likely very lightly polished at some point in its history. It has been expertly cleaned by one of our technicians, but not at all polished.
Dial:
The dial is overall in good condition with some tarnish on the hand and light patination in the center of the dial. Also in the center-upper-right of the dial is a slight mark, and there are some scratches and light tritium burn from the hour markers.
Movement:
The fully-serviced automatic-winding calibre by Rolex is in excellent condition.
Bracelet:
Genuine Rolex stainless steel Jubilee bracelet with 20 links and signed blade clasp. Seemingly only lightly polished, showing matching normal wear throughout with relatively light stretch for a jubilee bracelet of this vintage. Sized for ≈7.25"" wrist.

A classic of classics, the Rolex Datejust Ref. 1603 with its engine-turned bezel, is exceptionally adaptable, and one of the best values in vintage Rolex. The silver sunburst dial is elegantly understated, complemented by polished baton hour markers and matching hands that catch the light with every movement. The signature date aperture at 3 o’clock, magnified by the iconic Cyclops lens, completes the unmistakable Rolex aesthetic.
The 36mm Oyster stainless steel case is crowned with the distinctive engine-turned bezel—a hallmark of the 1603 reference—offering a subtle interplay of texture and light. Paired with its original Jubilee bracelet, the watch sits comfortably on the wrist, effortlessly blending dress and casual sensibilities.
The chronometer certified calibre exemplifies the precision and durability that made Rolex legendary. With its clean silver dial and classic proportions, this vintage Datejust remains as versatile today as it was five decades ago—a true staple discerning collectors.
