The Rolex Datejust Turn-O-Graph 1625, collectors' nickname "Thunderbird," brought Rolex's rotating-bezel Turn-O-Graph, originally launched as the time-only ref. 6202 in 1953, into the Datejust family, adding a date window, cyclops lens, and an engine-turned bezel with five- and ten-minute markers. Produced from 1959 into the mid-1970s, the 36 mm waterproof Oyster case pairs steel with a 14k yellow-gold timing bezel, typically over a silver "pie-pan" dial with yellow-gold indices, and ran the automatic caliber 1560 before Rolex moved the line to the caliber 1570 in 1965.
