Rolex Ref 1601

When you think of timeless Rolex designs, the ref 1601 honestly just... jumps out, right? Introduced in the late ‘50s, it’s kinda the blueprint for the Datejust look we all know today—with its elegant pie-pan dial and fluted bezel that really catch the light. At Tropical Watch, where vintage Rolex hunting feels more like an adventure than a task, the 1601 represents that perfect sweet spot of classic style, Swiss craftsmanship, and subtle individuality.
