Initially debuted in 1945, the Rolex Datejust was the world’s first self-winding wristwatch with a date function. Encased in the firm’s signature Oyster case, the Datejust was certainly more than just a touch of luxury but also seemingly a robust timepiece with waterproof capabilities. Today, the model remains as one of Rolex’s flagship models with various materials and dials featured over the years.

In 1988, Rolex released the ref. 16200 series of Datejust models upgraded with the firm’s new cal. 3135 as well as a sapphire crystal replacing its former Plexiglass crystal. The present example Rolex Datejust ref. 16233 from circa 1991 featuring a two-tone stainless steel and yellow gold case and bracelet encases a champagne hued dial with matching yellow gold hands to enhance its cohesiveness with its two tone case. The dial is further signed by reputable New York retailer Tiffany& Co., elevating the rarity of the present timepiece to a heightened level.
