    Pre-owned Rolex Date Ref. 1501 (1970) famously sports all the same aesthetics and design elements as the Datejust, just in a smaller 36mm package. It has the classic Oyster case, automatic movement, and the signature date display beneath a Cyclops lens, while maintaining a more subtle presence on the wrist. The example you see here is outfitted with an engine-turned bezel, a distinctive Rolex design element that alternates polished and brushed surfaces. The smooth polished segments align neatly with the hour markers, adding visual interest while subtly enhancing dial legibility. As one of the more approachable vintage Rolexes on the market, the Date ref. 1501 has timeless style, a fascinating history, and an accessible entry point into collecting. Shop Rolex Date Collection
