Everybody knows that the Datejust is by far one of the most classic and timeless timepieces ever created. This particular model, the Ref. 16233 is gives you the best of both worlds. It still features the classic vintage design touches, but robust at the same time. It offers the classic looks of a 36mm Datejust with all the modern conveniences, such as a sturdy sapphire crystal and handy quickset-date function. The 16233 is a two tone Datejust reference, which can be worn casually, but also classy. That's exaclty why we love the 162xx series. This example has a sharp stainless steel case, 18k yellow-gold crown, and 18k yellow-gold fluted bezel. The 18k yellow-gold and stainless steel bracelet is in amazing condition
The watch presented here is a complete collector’s set, originating from its first owner. What makes this example especially attractive is the silver dial. It isn't only rare to find, but it gives the watch a crisp, fresh, and minimalist aesthetic. Also very playful with different lightings. The contrast and simplicity of the dial enhance elegance while maintaining its sporty aeathetic.
On top of that, this particular watch stands out as a true collector’s piece: it comes as a full set, including the original box, papers, the original green caseback sticker and even the original purchase receipt from the famous dutch retailer 'Schaap and Citroen' That receipt is especially rare and adds an extra layer of provenance and authenticity, which is highly valued in the vintage Rolex market.
