About this Rolex Datejust

This Rolex Datejust, reference 16238, is a 36mm case in Yellow Gold used condition, featuring a Champagne Diamond dial, a Custom Diamond bezel, a Head only bracelet, dated circa 1993.

The Rolex Datejust

Heritage is the whole pitch on this one. The 1945 original wrote the format, the 1600-series owned the 60s and 70s, the caliber-3135 16xxx era ran the 80s and 90s, and the current 126xxx generation arrived in 2016 with Syloxi hairsprings and updated bracelets. That arc explains the $3,539 to $32,200 range. A dress-capable daily wearer with collector depth and steady trade demand. Read the full Datejust buying guide ›

About Rolex

Value-wise, these are easy to defend. Rolex came out of Geneva in 1905 under Hans Wilsdorf and built a hard reputation through waterproof Oyster cases, Perpetual self-winding movements, and the Cyclops date lens. Precision and durability turned it into an asset class as much as a watch. Demand consistently beats supply, so steel sports models trade over retail. Pay by bank wire and skip the 3.5% card-processing fee in the listed price — the trade-level math works for you. Browse all Rolex ›
