The "Oyster Perpetual Date" with fluted bezel, reference 1503, is slightly younger and a little smaller than the Datejust. This fine watch comes in a 35 mm gold case and features a marvelously Havanna dial with sunburst and slim gold indexes as well as a date magnifier – certainly an exceptionally attractive, classic Rolex timepiece for every occasion. This "Date" comes with its original punched chronometer certificate.
