Hi,

Today I saw a mint rolex DJ solid 18kt. 1601, 1570 movt. 1977 circa.
Original rolex leather strap & solid 18kt. buckle.
It had a white dial with black roman figures & black hr. & secs. hand.
Some say these are rare. Is it true. Priced USD 3110.
What say folks ?

Here's a 1983 TT with champagne dial.

The price for the one you saw is probably about right.

Well Rusi when you say rare the only reason you don't see many all gold ones simply down to price.Most at these times bought the TT and if they could afford the all the gold the DD.Now that 1601 I would doubt if strap was original,it was most properly on a gold Jubilee 6311/8 bracelet.

My God, Padi, you are as usual right. Just saw very carefully between lugs, YES it did have an bracelet ,( markings on the case shows) thus the strap was indeed put on later. Woh, what knowledge.
Any idea of the price, its in very good condition.

Have to agree on this one, Rusi.

Padi truly amazes us most of the time with some very appropriate and helpful answers.

Well Rusi myself have never been interested in all Gold watches of any brand never paid much attention to them.But as for price well have a look on Ebay check there to see what they are selling for.Now be careful quite a few of the 60s 70s watches were 14kt gold, so check hallmark 575.14ct, 750 18ct

Hi, Padi,
thanks, yes I always check teh hallmark & queens mark too.
What aboput the dial, some say that this particular type of dial, White, with balck roman figs., black hands. Is it rare? Any idea.
Price is my only problem.
Can anyone help.

Well Rushi the only white dial with Romans I can recall of the 70s was small hour markers around the outside,with the Romans inside like say for 12.

Now this one I found on the net complete but plain stick dial 18ct gold retail at $4000 but myself would have thought around $3750 top.
