Rolex Datejust Ref. 1603 Silver 'Pie-Pan' Sigma dial

First released in 1945, the Rolex Datejust marked forty years of Rolex timepieces. Today, it holds a spot in even the most exclusive collections and remains one of the most popular timepieces among both men and women. Loved for its sporty yet elegant design, the present-day Datejust is available in varied sizes, many case and bezel metals, and with seemingly unlimited dials.

Offered for sale here is a Rolex Datejust Ref. 1603 silver ‘Pie-Pan’ Sigma dial.

The dial has aged to a beautiful ‘Panna’, meaning the original white dial has acquired a creamy tone due to the patina it has formed on the surface, giving the watch tons of character. The dial shows some wear due to age, featuring some light spotting and oxidation at 6 o’clock, near the Sigma marks that show that the hour markers and hands are made from white gold and not steel as commonly seen.
