Median price per month or quarter. A point needs at least 3 records in its month or quarter; a gap in a line means too few records, and nothing is filled in. Forum prices are the price a seller listed on Reddit r/Watchexchange, RolexForums or WatchUSeek when the post was marked sold, not a confirmed sale price.

The Oyster Perpetual Date 34 1501 at a glance

In our catalog, the 1501 is a Oyster Perpetual Date 34: a 34 mm case in stainless steel. Our sources don't state its production years, so we don't list them.

What our catalog records for it:

  • Case: 34 mm, stainless steel.
  • Bezel: engine-turned stainless steel.
  • Movement: calibre 1570.

It is one of 93 references in our Oyster Perpetual catalog. Similar references to compare: Oyster Perpetual 34 114210 (stainless steel), Oyster Perpetual Date 34 115200 (stainless steel) and Oyster Perpetual Date 34 115234 (stainless steel with white gold bezel).

  • Newest sale used: October 7, 2026.
  • Market observations used: 293.

What affects the price

Condition. Ranges by condition (a condition shows a range only once it has enough results of its own):

  • Unworn: not enough market data yet.
  • Excellent: $2,800–$4,300.
  • Good: not enough market data yet.
  • Fair: not enough market data yet.

Box and papers. Buyers ask for the original box and papers first; keep them together with the watch.

Movement. It runs on the calibre 1570. A recent service with paperwork helps a sale; an overdue one is often priced into offers.

Bezel. The bezel is recorded as engine-turned stainless steel; dings on the bezel are easy to see in photos and buyers notice them.

Case condition. A steel case wears in daily use; buyers look at the lugs and case sides for dents and for signs of heavy polishing.

Retail reference. We don't show a list price for this reference, because we only publish one we can confirm from a source we can cite.

Recent movement. Change over the past year: +12.2% over 12 months.

Tips for buyers

  • Match the reference number on the papers (1501) with the watch, and check the 34 mm case.
  • Inspect the bezel closely; it should be engine-turned stainless steel.
  • Ask when the calibre 1570 was last serviced, and by whom.
  • Have an independent watchmaker inspect it within the return window.
  • Ask the seller how long they have had the watch and why they are selling.

Tips for sellers

  • Shoot the watch in daylight from the front, both sides and the back.
  • Collect the box, papers and any service records before you ask for offers.
  • Leave the case as it is: buyers prefer unpolished lines.
  • Compare each offer with the sold results summarised above.
