Hello everyone,
Up for sale is my Rolex Datejust 1603. Asking £3,950 OBO. The watch is in good cosmetic and mechanical condition—worn minimally and always stored properly. The Grey dial is very contemporary and modern in its look yet retaining a clean vintage aesthetic. For a watch of its age there is some sagging to the original rolled jubilee bracelet but is still totally wearable and robust. It’s been stored in a PELI 1450 watertight case (not included) in a temperature-controlled room, opened monthly to give the movement a full wind.

Specs:
Case: Stainless steel, 36mm diameter, ~12mm thick, 100m WR
Bezel: Engine-turned stainless steel
Dial: Grey sunburst dial, baton hour markers and hands
Crystal: Acrylic with cyclops magnifier over date
Movement: Rolex Caliber 1570, automatic, non-quickset date, COSC certified, 19,800 bph, ~48h power reserve
Bracelet: Stainless steel Jubilee 6251H with 55 end links, folding clasp, 21 links (around 20cm circumference)
Features: Time, Date, COSC Certification

Selling for £3,950 OBO including DHL shipping worldwide
