Rolex Datejust 36 (Ref. 16233) – Two-Tone Champagne Dial – Circa 1995
Up for sale is a classic mid-90s Rolex Datejust 36, Reference 16233. When most people imagine an iconic Rolex, this is the exact configuration that comes to mind: two-tone steel and 18k yellow gold, fluted bezel, champagne dial, and a Jubilee bracelet.
This particular piece dates to circa 1995 (W-serial era). The 16233 is often considered the "sweet spot" for vintage-modern Datejusts—you get the classic vintage proportion and aesthetic, but with the modern convenience of a scratch-resistant sapphire crystal and the bulletproof Caliber 3135 quickset movement.
