Vintage Watches From Amsterdam

More details about this timepiece

With its original era charm and a dial tone that speaks to decades of gentle evolution, this Datejust is for someone who appreciates tradition, finesse — and a watch that doesn’t feel like it’s shouting for attention.

Why it stands out:
- ‘Havanna’ ghost writing dial
- Smooth bezel
- Sigma dial.

What you should know:
- Some wear and polishing to casing.
- Serial and reference number both legible, only with 10x loop.

General information:
As most would agree, the dial is the true showstopper here. In its immaculate condition and with the soothing tones of both the base and the writing, we believe this watch offers an appeal rarely found on other pieces.
The serial and reference numbers between the lugs show some wear from the bracelet end link. Using a magnifying loupe, both numbers remain legible, though reading them requires some effort. The serial number 3.125.xxx dates the watch to 1972.
The watch is fitted with a later strap paired with a gold-plated Rolex buckle.
