My view
What I think of it
About the model
A true icon of 1980s vintage style, the Rolex Datejust reference 16013 embodies the perfect union of the prestige of 18k yellow gold and the robustness of stainless steel. Recognizable at first glance, this “Rolesor” model has passed through the decades with undeniable elegance.
This piece features a dial with golden hues, set off by a fluted yellow gold bezel, the emblematic aesthetic signature of the brand with the crown. Mounted on its famous two-tone Jubilee bracelet, it has a remarkable, refined presence on the wrist.
Powered by the in-house Caliber 3035, this generation introduced the quick-set date (Quickset) function, bringing modern ease of use to a historic collectible watch.
