Vintage Rolex: iconic models that have become absolute references

The vintage Rolex Datejust remains one of the pillars of our selection. Appearing in the 1940s, it established itself as the quintessential watch de ville. References like the Datejust 1601, recognizable by its white gold fluted bezel, or the Datejust 1603 with "engine-turned" steel bezel, perfectly embody the Rolex aesthetic of the 60s and 70s. More recent, the Datejust 16233 in steel and yellow gold, often mounted on a Jubilee bracelet, represents the DNA of vintage Rolex luxury from the 80s-90s, prized today as vintage men's Rolex.

For lovers of minimalist watches, the Rolex Oysterdate Precision 6694 is an essential reference. This iconic model of vintage 34mm Rolex, with manual winding, charms with its perfect balance, readability, and discreet elegance. It is ideal as a vintage Rolex Unisex, equally suited to both male and female wrists. The charm of the vintage Oyster also lies in its iconic, robust, and waterproof case, which spans the decades without losing modernity.

In a more sporty register, the vintage Rolex Submariner stands out as an absolute icon. Legendary references like the Submariner 5513, famous for its no-date dial, or the Submariner 1680, the first Submariner with a date, embody the spirit of adventure and performance of Rolex. These diving watches, which have become cult, are today the most collected vintage sports Rolex.

Chronograph enthusiasts naturally turn to the legendary vintage Rolex Daytona. Mythical references such as the Daytona 6239 or the 6263, closely linked to the automotive world and Paul Newman, are among the most coveted old Rolex watches in the world. They are true symbols of technical mastery and timeless watch design.

In a more dressed-up approach, the vintage Rolex Cellini reflects pure refinement. Mostly produced in 18k yellow, white, or rose gold, these de ville sober watches are perfect as elegant vintage women's Rolex or as a chic alternative for collectors of old Rolex watches.

Finally, the very first Rolex Rolco models from the 1930s and 1940s tell the story of the manufacture's origin and its evolution towards its current prestige. These rare watches, sometimes in small diameters, are unique pieces for any Rolex collector enthusiast.
