Rolex Datejust 1611 Description

Reference 1611 is a rare, decorative model from the 36mm Datejust 16xx series, produced from the 1960s through the 1970s. Its primary technical feature, specified by the 11 in the reference number, is a bezel with a ‘Morellis’ finish. This artisanal texture, crafted from solid 18k yellow gold, consists of a fine, hand-hammered or stippled pattern that creates a unique, shimmering effect. The watch is powered by the Rolex Caliber 1575, a non-quickset date automatic chronometer movement. The 36mm Oyster case is fitted with a domed acrylic crystal and often a ‘pie-pan’ dial. The significance of the Ref. 1611 lies in its status as a texturally unique and artistic Datejust.
