FROM THE CURATOR
Iconic in the lexicon of vintage Rolex Datejust designs, the linen dial variations stand above the rest. This example, Ref. 1601, dates back to 1973. Just the right amount of time to let the years bring a light, warm, and even patina to the dial, matching perfectly with the fluted white gold bezel. This contrasts quietly, but beautifully, against the cooler tone of the unpolished steel case and original Jubilee bracelet. A robust and simple elegance that will never look out of place, this is what vintage Rolex is all about.
And of course, it comes complete with a certificate of authenticity and appraisal and is shipped carefully and fully insured via UPS expedited service.
ABOUT THE BRAND
Rolex is arguably the most famous brand in the world when it comes to luxury timepieces. Their brand equity is through the roof, and you’d be hard pressed to find another luxury watchmaker who can make watch geeks and non-geeks alike incredibly stoked. Their quality is second to none, and it makes sense that until this day, when someone thinks about James Bond, Magnum P.I. or Glengarry Glen Ross, they think of Rolex.

RETURNS
Clients are given a three day grace period after sale to initiate a return, no questions asked. To do so, email office@theoandharris.com for shipping instructions and appropriate labels. All returns that have been shipped and received must be returned in the same condition as when they were sold. Once received, Theo & Harris has 3 days to issue a refund, minus all shipping costs. Also, we ask our watch strap clients to be mindful the edge of their new strap doesn’t rub against the case when the two meet. On occasion, this can result in damage.
