Featuring a 34mm stainless steel case that wears remarkably bold thanks to its distinctive engine-turned bezel, this timepiece is a masterclass in neo-vintage charm.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e​The highlight of this piece is its striking, factory-original sunburst blue dial. Over decades, natural UV exposure focused through the cyclops magnification lens has interacted beautifully with the original galvanic plating process. This has revealed a stunning, localized golden undertone right around the date window—a localized \"tropical\" aging process that serves as an absolute badge of authenticity. It ensures that no other Reference 1501 on earth looks exactly like this one.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e​Preserved in honest, vintage condition with a crisp 78350 Oyster bracelet and pristine tritium plot degradation, this is a timepiece for the collector who values absolute technical transparency, historical grit, and wearable art.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e​\u003cb\u003eThe Details:\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli dir=\"ltr\"\u003e​\u003cb\u003eModel:\u003c\/b\u003e Rolex Oyster Perpetual Date\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli dir=\"ltr\"\u003e​\u003cb\u003eReference:\u003c\/b\u003e 1501\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli dir=\"ltr\"\u003e​\u003cb\u003eCase Size:\u003c\/b\u003e 34mm (Stainless Steel)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli dir=\"ltr\"\u003e​\u003cb\u003eBezel:\u003c\/b\u003e OEM Stainless Steel Engine-Turned\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli dir=\"ltr\"\u003e​\u003cb\u003eDial:\u003c\/b\u003e Factory OEM Sunburst Blue (Featuring honest, UV-induced gold aging under the cyclops)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli dir=\"ltr\"\u003e​\u003cb\u003eBracelet:\u003c\/b\u003e OEM Rolex Oyster 78350 with minimal stretch\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli dir=\"ltr\"\u003e​\u003cb\u003eCrystal:\u003c\/b\u003e Vintage Acrylic\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"GoldCrest Reserve","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48342766616746,"sku":null,"price":4400.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0700\/3822\/5066\/files\/rn-image_picker_lib_temp_0d84fc12-27c8-4995-94c4-f3130b803a6f.jpg?v=1779588422","url":"https:\/\/goldcrest.luxe\/products\/untitled-may23_22-03-25","provider":"GoldCrest Reserve","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
