Rolex Oyster Perpetual Date 1507

The Rolex Oyster Perpetual Date ref. 1507 is a mid-century reference crafted entirely in 14k or 18k yellow gold, produced from the mid-1960s through the late 1970s. The 34mm Oyster case features a smooth or fluted bezel and is paired with an acrylic crystal topped with the iconic Cyclops magnifier over the date window. Its waterproof integrity is upheld by Rolex’s screw-down crown and caseback. The 1507 is powered by the Rolex Caliber 1570, an automatic, COSC-certified movement known for its durability and precision, offering hacking seconds and a power reserve of approximately 48 hours. Dial variants were typically formal and elegant, including silver, champagne, and black finishes, often accented by gold baton hour markers and dauphine or stick hands. Its lug-to-lug span is approximately 41mm and the lug width is 19mm, making it proportionally balanced while offering a luxurious gold presence on the wrist. The 1507 appeals to collectors and vintage enthusiasts who value understated gold Rolex models with reliable mechanical performance and timeless design, and it is often paired with a leather strap or matching gold bracelet for dress occasions.
