Rolex Oyster Perpetual 1002

The Rolex Oyster Perpetual 1002 is kind of a quiet icon—first introduced in the 1950s, it’s fuss-free, elegant, and built like a tank, oh and it totally set the stage for future everyday Rolex styles. Made with that classic no-date simplicity, the 1002 reflects Rolex’s giddy-up during the postwar boom. At Tropical Watch, finding clean examples of vintage pieces like the 1002 feels less like shopping and more like unearthing this crazy time capsule, honestly.
