2003 Rolex Datejust Ref. 16234 – Black Dial + Original Warranty

Very nice example of Rolex Datejust, reference 16234, produced in 2002 (serial number Y68xxxx) and initially sold in 2003.
Scratch-resistant sapphire crystal, black “SWISS MADE” dial (SuperLumiNova base) with applied white gold stick indexes and closed railway minute track with painted Roman numerals at the 5-minute graduations, fluted white gold bezel, original Jubilee bracelet (produced in January 2003), very reliable automatic movement: a perfect watch for everyday wear, for both men and women!
In very good overall condition and recently serviced by a qualified watchmaker, this Datejust is a wonderful entry point into collecting so-called "neo-vintage" luxury watches. It combines the characteristic features of Rolex's models throughout the 20th century (an elegant slim case and satin-finished lugs) with the practical advantages of modern watches: durable stainless steel, solid bracelets, reliable movements with a large power reserve, and scratch-resistant sapphire crystals.
At Amplitude°, we're notoriously fond of Datejusts and strive to always offer a great selection – contact us to find yours!

If there were only one watch left, it would be a Rolex Datejust.

Since its creation in 1945, the Datejust has embodied the pinnacle of functionality and style in the world of luxury watches. This collection encapsulates the essence of Rolex's technical innovations and stylistic identity: a water-resistant steel Oyster case, a screw-down crown, a reliable and precise automatic movement, a legible dial, and an instantaneous date window at 3 o'clock, made accessible at a glance by the Cyclops, a magnifying glass affixed to the crystal, patented in the early 1950s.

We present here an excellent example of the reference 16234. Equipped with a fluted white gold bezel and a solid stainless steel Jubilee bracelet, this watch has a very beautiful and elegant black dial with applied baton indexes and white gold hands.

This watch is powered by the celebrated Rolex 3135 self-winding mechanical caliber, which is extremely reliable.

Our 16234 is presented in excellent aesthetic and mechanical condition, with a flawless dial, a sharp-edged case, a well-defined bezel, and a taut bracelet. Its movement has also recently undergone a complete mechanical overhaul by a qualified watchmaker to ensure its perfect operation for many years to come.

This beautiful Datejust is presented in excellent overall condition.
The perfectly preserved case features wide, satin-finished lugs, just as they were when this watch was first sold in 2002. The fluted white gold bezel is well-defined, with crisp striations and brilliant facets.
The black “SWISS MADE” dial with baton/stick marker and closed railway minute track with Roman numerals 5-minute graduations is free from any defects, as are the hands (SuperLumiNova base).
The original Jubilee bracelet was produced in January 2003, and is perfectly preserved, with a very defined Rolex crown and no stretch.
The self-winding mechanical movement, Rolex caliber 3135, has been serviced by one of our qualified watchmakers and operates to the strictest tolerances, with a professional timegrapher reading of 290° amplitude, +0 s/day average deviation in 5 positions, and 0.0 ms beat error.
In short, a piece that is over 20 years old and yet perfectly preserved both aesthetically and mechanically!
