Rolex Oyster Perpetual Date 15200 Blue Dial from 2000

Rolex is a Swiss luxury watchmaker that was founded in 1905 by Hans Wilsdorf and Alfred Davis. The company is best known for its line of Oyster watches, which are widely considered to be some of the best-made and most iconic timepieces in the world. Rolex has been a major innovator in the watchmaking industry, and its Oyster Perpetual models are one of the most iconic and sought-after watches.

A worldwide trusted and iconic wrist companion in stainless by Rolex, suitable for everyday wear. A stainless steel Oyster Perpetual (automatic self-winding) wristwatch with stunning silver sunburst dial, from the year 2000, with the original Rolex Oyster bracelet. The icing on the cake, is the presence of the factory sticker on the case back.

This classic and iconic Rolex Date reference 15200 was introduced as an alternative for the larger 36 mm measuring model, the Rolex Oyster Perpetual Datejust. This Rolex ref. 15200 measures 34 mm and features the same functions as the Rolex Datejust: Both watches feature a date function with a magnifier on the plexiglass, and both watches are fitted with in-house Rolex Oyster Perpetual movements. The cases are, besides the difference in the measurements, also very similar. The case on this vintage Rolex Date is an Oyster case which is developed to be waterproof, which are carried by the screwed Rolex Oyster Crown, and the thick screw-on case back.

When we look at the case of this watch, we see some light signs of wear. Overall however, judging this the age of the watch, the watch is in a very good condition and is ready to be worn as a daily and trustworthy wrist-companion. Also the movement runs very strong, leaving you with a watch that is mostly stunning to look at, and is very well matched with sportive or more formal wear.
