Older DJ Question

I've just been looking at some picks of my 1977 1601 DJ . I noticed that the dial reads "O T SWISS T O" . Does anyone know what the O stands for ?

Means your dial indices are made of gold, should have matching hands too. "O" being oro (spanish for gold).

However this was when Rolex was transitioning to the gold hands and indices which all models now have, therefore, no current models are marked like this.

That is a nice 'classic' DJ.
