Rolex 16233 Datejust 18K Yellow Gold / SS Champagne Diamond Dial Circa. 1996

The Rolex Datejust reference 16233 stands as a refined expression of Rolex’s iconic two‑tone Rolesor aesthetic, combining a 36 mm stainless steel case with an 18 k yellow gold fluted bezel and matching Jubilee bracelet. Powered by the legendary Caliber 3135 automatic movement, this model delivers COSC‑certified precision and a quickset date function, a hallmark of Rolex’s technical prowess. The champagne dial with diamond hour markers elevates the classic Datejust design into a more luxurious realm, offering both legibility and elegance. Introduced in the late 1980s and produced into the early 2000s, the 16233 remains highly regarded among collectors for its balanced proportions, robust movement, and timeless styling.

Its enduring design, reliable movement, and tasteful use of precious materials make this Datejust 16233 a compelling choice for discerning collectors seeking a dress watch with both historical significance and everyday elegance.
