About this watch

Band: Jubilee Clasp: Folding Glass: Sapphire crystal Water Resistant: 100m The Rolex Datejust 36 Ref. 16233 is an enduring expression of the brand’s horological heritage, combining timeless elegance with everyday versatility. Introduced in 1988, this reference marked an important evolution in the Datejust lineage, bringing a sapphire crystal to the two-tone collection. Crafted in stainless steel and 18ct yellow gold, its signature fluted yellow gold bezel and iconic Jubilee bracelet create a sophisticated interplay of textures and tones. Particularly appealing is the elegant Ivory Jubilee dial, beautifully complemented by applied Arabic numeral hour markers in gold, lending the watch a distinctive character while preserving the understated refinement for which the Datejust is celebrated. The harmonious 36mm Oyster case further enhances its classic proportions, making this a particularly versatile and enduring design. Powering the watch is Rolex’s renowned in-house Calibre 3135, a self-winding mechanical movement widely respected for its reliability, precision and durability. A COSC-certified chronometer, the movement operates at 28,800 vibrations per hour and features 31 jewels, delivering an approximate power reserve of 48 hours. Circa 1991, this Rolex Datejust 36mm 16233 with Ivory Jubilee dial is in overall very good condition. The watch is offered with the original box and papers, as well as the 24-month Vintage Watch Co warranty.
