Rolex Datejust 36 16233 Champagne Tapestry Dial

Rolex Datejust 36, reference 16233, 1993. Oystersteel and yellow gold, 36mm, automatic, champagne tapestry dial on Jubilee bracelet. Selected because this example combines a well-preserved case with no visible signs of prior polishing, a matching tritium dial and hands, a tapestry dial in clean condition, and a Jubilee bracelet entirely free of stretch, a combination that is increasingly difficult to find on examples of this age.
