FOR SALE – ROLEX OYSTER PERPETUAL DATEJUST REF. 16013 (1978)

We are pleased to offer this highly attractive Rolex Oyster Perpetual Datejust reference 16013 from 1978, a beautifully presented vintage example featuring a stunning gold tone dial with elegant Roman numerals. This classic two-tone configuration perfectly captures the timeless charm of late 1970s Rolex design, combining warmth, sophistication, and everyday wearability in one of Rolex's most iconic references.

The watch is fitted with a striking gold dial showcasing applied Roman numerals and matching hands, creating a refined and balanced appearance. The dial presents beautifully and gives the watch a distinctive character and elegant wrist presence rarely found in comparable vintage Datejust examples. Combined with the fluted bezel and classic 36mm proportions, it creates a timeless aesthetic that remains as appealing today as it was nearly 50 years ago.

The 36mm two-tone case remains in very nice overall condition with strong proportions and is fitted with the characteristic 18 carat yellow gold fluted bezel. The watch is currently fitted with a two-tone Jubilee style replacement bracelet, which complements the overall aesthetic perfectly and gives the watch the classic Datejust look collectors love. Additionally, a brown suede strap can be included, allowing the watch to be worn in a more understated and vintage-inspired configuration.

Inside beats the reliable automatic quickset movement, running well and keeping time. Together with its attractive and nicely complete accessory set, this makes for a highly appealing vintage Datejust suitable for both collectors and those looking for a stylish everyday vintage Rolex.
