Rolex Datejust 36 Ref. 16234 features a black dial with baton hour markers and a railway-track style chapter ring, complemented by a matching jubilee bracelet. This reference was among the first five-digit offerings in the Datejust family and one of the first to incorporate a sapphire crystal.
The watch showcases Rolex's signature instantaneous date change mechanism, where the date flips precisely at midnight. Powered by the caliber 3135, offers improved performance, including a larger balance wheel, increased jewel count from 27 to 31, and an extended power reserve of 50 hours compared to the previous 42 hours4.
This particular Rolex Datejust 36 Ref. 16234, dating from circa 2001, is in very good pre-owned condition. It comes with the original box and includes a 24-month warranty for added peace of mind.
