Rolex "Tropical Gilt 1500" Date

SOLD

Rolex “Tropical Gilt 1500” Date

SOLD

Description

Offered here is an early and special Rolex Date, reference 1500, circa 1968.  This particular Rolex Date was fitted with a black, “gilt” dial, and has aged to a gorgeous tropical brown color.  The watch itself is in great vintage condition.  The case was likely lightly polished in the past, but retaining thick and even lugs; the caseback shows an engraving “Bill Burke” (can be removed upon request).  Further, the dial is stunning – retaining its factory mirror-gloss appearance, and showing a striking brown color-change.  Likewise, the watch retains its original tritium lume on both dial and hands, aged to a golden yellow.  The watch comes fitted on its original Rolex Swiss rivet 7206 bracelet with 57 endlinks, dated to 1969, and has 13 full links, well preserved with light stretch.
