1962 Rolex Oyster Perpetual 18k Yellow Gold Date Double Signed Beyer Tropical Swiss only dial 1503
The 1962 Rolex Oyster Perpetual Date reference 1503 in 18k yellow gold is a remarkable example of mid-century Rolex elegance, made all the more special by its double-signed dial from Beyer, the prestigious Zurich retailer. Its once-silvered dial has aged into a rich tropical hue, giving it a unique warmth and depth that collectors covet, especially paired with the rare “Swiss only” designation at six o’clock, indicating the use of radium lume. The applied gold indices and dauphine hands provide a refined balance against the dial’s subtle patina, while the smooth bezel and robust Oyster case underscore Rolex’s signature blend of luxury and durability. Double-signed pieces from this era are already scarce, and when combined with tropical aging and the association with one of the world’s most historic retailers, this ref. 1503 stands out as a watch of both historical and aesthetic significance.
