Description

Rolex made many variations of the 1500 series, but this piece is truly one of a kind. Originally a blue "Mosaic" dial, decades of exposure to time and the elements have transformed it into something entirely unique: a dial with an organic blend of blue, sage, coffee, and a touch of brick. The effect is somewhere between abstract art and vintage textile-earning it the nickname "Shantung" dial among some collectors. What makes it even more special? The text on the dial has aged into what collectors call "ghost print" —the white text nearly disappears in harsh light, only visible at certain angles. You won't see another quite like it. Key Details: • Case: 34mm diameter • Lug-to-Lug: 42mm • Lug Width: 19mm • Original folded Oyster rivet bracelet •Thickness: ~11.5mm • Crystal: Acrylic • Movement: Rolex Caliber 1570, automatic • Power Reserve: ~48 hours •Period-correct date wheel hook 7 • Private service completed early 2024 • Light polish, good condition for clean for age Happy to FaceTime or video chat with any questions!
