Datejust Turn-o-graph
“Thunderbird”
Description:
The Rolex Datejust Turn-O-Graph ref. 1625 is a vintage classic that blends the elegance of the Datejust with the functionality of a rotating bezel. It was among the first Rolex models to feature a bidirectional timing bezel, earning it the nickname “Thunderbird” when adopted by the U.S. Air Force Thunderbirds squadron. The 36 mm case in stainless steel houses a silver dial framed with a white gold bezel and powdered by the automatic Caliber 1570, offering robust reliability. As both a tool and dress watch, the 1625 occupies a unique niche in Rolex history, admired by collectors for its sporty utility wrapped in classic Datejust refinement.
