Rolex Datejust 36mm | Silver Dial | 18K White Gold Bezel | Ref. 16014 |
The Rolex Datejust Ref. 16014 is a classic vintage configuration of one of Rolex’s most recognizable models, combining a traditional 36mm stainless-steel Oyster case with an 18K white-gold fluted bezel and stainless-steel Jubilee bracelet. Based on serial number 6,491,042, this example dates to approximately 1980, placing it within the early production period of the five-digit Datejust generation.
The silver dial features applied baton hour markers, matching baton-style hands, an outer minute track with Roman numeral accents, and a date window at 3 o’clock beneath the signature Cyclops magnifier. The monochromatic combination of the silver dial, stainless-steel case, white-gold bezel, and Jubilee bracelet gives the watch the timeless and versatile appearance associated with the classic Datejust.
