1601 Rolex Datejust

The Rolex Datejust 1601, introduced in the late 1950s, is basically the blueprint for timeless design—fluted bezel, pie-pan dial, and that oh-so-satisfying date change at midnight. It's wild to think this classic is still shaping styles today. At Tropical Watch, we chase that magic—sourcing vintage treasures like the 1601 for collectors who just get it. Solid gold, steel, or two-tone, every 1601 feels like a little time capsule in the best way.
