The Datejust model with rotating bezel chased with minute divisions and fine dividing lines was launched in 1956. In one of the first Rolex US catalogues featuring the watch, it is shown with a dial bearing the emblem of the US Air Force flying team The Thunderbirds. From this association this model is known as Thunderbird in the US but as Turn-O-Graph in Europe.

It is rare to find a "pink on pink" reference 1625, especially in great condition, such as the present example.
