This Rolex Datejust, reference 16233, is a 36mm case in Steel and Yellow Gold used condition, featuring a Champagne Diamond dial, a Fluted YG bezel, a Jubilee D bracelet, dated circa 1994.

Priced dealer-direct and shipped fully insured.
Condition and originality decide your number on a Datejust. Bezel style and dial type drive big spreads inside a single reference, and box and papers materially lift the premium. The current 126234 offers strong secondary-market liquidity if you want an easy exit later. Vintage 6517 examples reward collectors chasing patina. Steel ladies sit at entry, solid gold and gem-set at the ceiling, $3,539 to $32,200. Read the full Datejust buying guide ›
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 take about 3.4% off the listed price — the trade-level math works for you. Browse all Rolex ›
