Datejust

The Rolex Datejust 16234 is one of the most iconic and beloved models in the Datejust collection, known for its perfect blend of elegance, durability, and timeless design. Produced from the late 1980s through the early 2000s, this reference has become a classic choice for those seeking a refined everyday luxury watch.

The 36mm Oyster case is crafted from corrosion-resistant stainless steel, paired with a distinctive 18k white gold fluted bezel, adding a subtle touch of sophistication. The dial comes in a wide variety of colors and styles, often featuring stick or Roman numeral hour markers and the signature Cyclops lens over the date window at 3 o’clock.

Powering the 16234 is the Rolex Caliber 3135, a self-winding automatic movement known for its accuracy and robustness. Certified as a Superlative Chronometer, it features a quickset date function, central seconds hand, and a power reserve of approximately 48 hours.

The watch is typically fitted with either the sporty Oyster bracelet or the more elegant Jubilee bracelet, both in stainless steel, and equipped with a folding clasp for a secure and comfortable fit. Water resistance up to 100 meters (330 feet) makes it suitable for daily wear in almost any setting.

Combining understated luxury with everyday functionality, the Datejust 16234 remains a timeless Rolex that appeals to collectors and first-time buyers alike.
