Rolex 16014 36mm with box and papers
$10,700.00
Here is the Rolex Datejust – one of the most iconic watches, and one that is so suited to both formal and informal occasions that looks so good on the wrist, day or night.
Made in stainless steel with the 18 carat white gold bezel in 1988, the case measures the iconic 36mm across plus the Rolex Oyster crown and with the sleek looking silver dial with index markers, this has the perfect look that has never gone out of fashion or style.
Fitted on the Rolex Jubilee band that is in wonderful condition, the case back still retains its original sticker showing just how little wear this watch has had in its life.
Powered by the 27 jewelled automatic Rolex calibre 3035 movement that has just been serviced by our in-house watchmaker, who himself used to work for Rolex, it comes with our twenty four month warranty. Not only are we able to service our Rolex watches along with the other brands that we sell, but we can also service your Rolex or any other Swiss watch or pocket watch that you may have, all done in store, as well as being an authorised OMEGA watch service centre. All of our watch repair work is carried out on-site which allows us to keep control of it without having to send a watch interstate or overseas.
Complete with its box and papers and in superb condition, this is a fantastic example of a vintage Rolex Datejust that can still so easily be worn everyday, and always look perfect on the wrist.

A brief history on the Rolex automatic calibre 3035
Rolex released their calibre 3035 in 1977 as the movement to take over from their esteemed calibre 1570. This meant that it not just had to be better, it had to make people realise that this was such a leap forward in watch movements which it was of course.
To begin with, it was Rolex’s first gents watch to have a high beat movement. By increasing the balance speed from 19,800bph to 28,800bph, this new movement now offered an even greater level of accuracy than the earlier model, which itself was so highly regarded.
This new speed of the 3035 causes the seconds hand to now “tick” eight times per second, giving Rolex their iconic smooth sweep that is so characteristic of Rolex watches today.
The Rolex 16013 models used the 27 jewelled Rolex calibre 3035 which had an upgraded power reserve of 50 hours and along with this increase in its power reserve and frequency, the Rolex calibre 3035 was also was the first automatic movement to feature a quickset function.
