The Rolex Datejust has served as the foundation of Rolex's product lineup since 1945. This particular reference 16234 from 1994 presents itself as a perfect choice for a daily timepiece. As a 5-digit reference of the Datejust it incorporates all the modern advancements within vintage specifications. It features a sapphire crystal, a date window at 3 o'clock with a quickset function, an 18k white gold fluted bezel, a flat style Jubilee bracelet, and operates with the iconic Caliber. 3135 automatic movement.

Condition Report:
Overall, the watch is in excellent condition and has been recently serviced by Rolex (2019) ready for its new owner. The white dial is in excellent condition with minimal wear present, applied Roman hour markers are present in 18k white gold. Around the exterior of the numerals is a black track with even tritium lume plops. Positioned at 3 o'clock is the date window, and just below the 6 o'clock marker, you'll find the tagline 'T Swiss Made T'. The sapphire crystal is unblemished and is a welcomed update to this 5-digit reference.

The 36mm case is in excellent condition, bearing only minor hairline scratches. Even after a minor polish, the case edges remain crisp and well-defined. The crown, located at 3 o'clock, can be wound smoothly and operates without any resistance - there is also the ability to set the date with the quickset function.
