The Rolex Oyster Perpetual Date ref. 1500/8 here is anything but average. It features an 18K rose gold case with a gorgeous silver dial. While full-gold Datejust's are already less common than Day-Dates, finding one in the 34 mm Oyster Perpetual Date line is even more unusual, particularly in 18K gold (14K was more commonly used on precious metal Oyster Perpetual models). This watch was worn very sparingly throughout its life. The case is pristine, showing only the faintest hairlines. 

A wonderful watch on the wrist.
