Rolex Datejust 1630

Produced in limited numbers in the 1970s, the era that spawned the luxury steel sports watch genre, this ‘Rare Bird’ Rolex Datejust is highly unusual due to its angular case, which is more commonly associated with Rolex’s Oysterquartz model. The 1630, however, despite its looks, runs on an automatic movement, making it a hugely collectible piece. Featuring a 36mm steel tonneau case with fluted gold bezel, twinned with a two-tone, Royal-Oakesque integrated Jubilee bracelet, it’s an effortless mix of the sporty and the luxurious. If you love the look of the Oysterquartz but are put off by the battery-powered movement, this is the watch for you.
