The Rolex Datejust 1601 is one of the most popular and well-known timepieces ever made. Long considered aspirational, the Datejust was the sign of a life well lived. The two-tone model with champagne dial and jubilee bracelet has become extremely popular, with collectors embracing the classic style. Plastic crystal 1600-series Datejusts, with their unique pie pan dials, and vintage warmth have a big fanbase and for a good reason. They represent the best of Rolex and have a lot of appreciation potential.
