Rolex 1570 Description

The Rolex Caliber 1570 is a legendary automatic, chronometer-grade movement. An evolution of the 15xx series, it was celebrated for its accuracy and durability, earning the “Superlative Chronometer Officially Certified” title. It featured Rolex’s Microstella regulation system for high precision. This caliber powered iconic models like the Submariner Date 1680 and GMT-Master 1675 (as the 1575 with date). A hacking seconds feature was added around 1972, further enhancing its functionality. The 1570 is considered a pinnacle of Rolex engineering from its era.
