Rolex “18kt 1601 Malachite” Datejust

Description

Up for grabs is a Rolex Datejust, cased in 18kt yellow gold, circa 1977, fitted with an extremely rare “Malachite” stone dial.  Stone dial Datejust and Day-Dates have soared in popularity, adding a little variance to your normal fare dials of the Datejust and Day-Date models.  This particular Rolex Datejust is in great vintage condition.  The case appears unpolished and sharp, or if it has been polished, it was done very lightly. The Malachite dial does show a few light hairline cracks to the stone, not overtly visible to the naked eye, and is overall well-preserved.  The watch comes fitted on a Rolex Swiss Jubilee hidden-clasp bracelet, with very light stretch and will fit an approximate 6.8-7″ wrist (three removable screws).
