Rolex Datejust 36mm 16220; Vintage Automatic Watch

Description

RESERVED FOR DANNY until 11-06-2026 The Rolex Datejust 16220 is one of the iconic and timeless models from the Rolex collection. This steel version combines classic elegance with sporty versatility, a true all-rounder for any occasion and everyday use. This model, a so-called 'S-serial' from 1994/1995, features the specific typical 'Engine-Turned' steel bezel and sapphire crystal. This watch is in very good condition.

Notably, the slightly discolored 'patina' silver dial has taken on a yellow hue. With a case diameter of 36mm, this watch has the traditional and most beloved Datejust size. The combination of the steel case/bezel and the characteristic Jubilee bracelet provides a luxurious and recognizable look.

Inside, it houses the high-quality Rolex Caliber 3135 automatic movement. This caliber is renowned worldwide for its reliability, precision, and longevity, forming the backbone of many Rolex models for decades. The movement, like the entire watch, is in excellent condition and runs perfectly and very accurately (with a measured +1 sec./24h).

This specific piece is particularly special due to its very good overall condition, where the original case finish has been perfectly preserved, a feature that is becoming increasingly rare among vintage Datejust models. We consciously choose to leave it as is! Light signs of wear, but nothing unusual. We prefer not to polish vintage masterpieces like this.

Furthermore, this is a unique opportunity for lovers of a 'birth year watch', this watch was delivered around 1994/1995 and comes with the correct bracelet (clasp code 'T') from that time.

The original steel Jubilee bracelet with the correct 'clasp code' (therefore the band belongs to the year of manufacture) is in exceptionally good condition, with hardly any stretch and fits comfortably up to approximately 18.5cm wrists. The crown on the clasp is razor-sharp. Notably, on the sides of the clasp, we see some light dents, nothing unusual, but worth mentioning, and we've also made it extra clear in the photo.

The watch is delivered including;

• -Original vintage Rolex box
• -Our warranty report with 1 year warranty

A classic and highly sought-after Rolex Datejust, thanks to its neat overall condition. Ideal as a 'birth year watch' or as a timeless addition to any collection.
