Rolex - Datejust Turn-O-Graph Sunburst Silver Dial - 1625 - 1969

A timeless expression of elegance and innovation, the Rolex Datejust Turn-O-Graph Ref. 1625 stands as one of the most historically significant models in Rolex’s lineage. Introduced as the first Rolex to feature a rotating bezel, the Turn-O-Graph seamlessly blends form and function—bridging the gap between the classic Datejust and the sporty tool watches that followed.

This 1969 example embodies vintage sophistication, featuring a sunburst silver dial that radiates under any light, complemented by polished baton hour markers and the iconic Cyclops date window. Its engine-turned 18k white gold bezel adds both texture and refinement, giving this piece a distinctive charm that sets it apart from other Datejust models of the era.

Powered by the reliable Caliber 1570 automatic movement, this watch delivers precision and durability synonymous with Rolex’s golden age of craftsmanship. The stainless steel case retains its sharp lines and proportions, while the matching Oyster bracelet enhances comfort and versatility—perfect for both formal and casual wear.

Owning this vintage Turn-O-Graph is more than acquiring a timepiece—it’s holding a piece of Rolex history, one that laid the foundation for the brand’s later icons such as the Submariner and GMT-Master.
