Rolex Datejust ref. 16233 Two-Tone Steel and 18k gold L-serial 1989
The Datejust is quintessential Rolex. Not only are the 1960-1970’s variations of this model with pie-pan depth and open midcentury font in the datewheel exceptionally unique, but the dials often don refined colors and patina. This reference 16233 is a fine Neo-vinatge example with Two-Tone Steel and 18k gold, holes case for easy strap changes, tritium dial, sapphire crystal and quickset date complication with “open” 6 and 9 font. This piece can clearly serve as a dress piece as well as a warm daily. Overall, this once is in very good condition with very light signs of wear and polish— all lume is dead like it should. While no service history, this one is smooth and looking healthy on Timegrapher and data is solid—your experience may vary.
Datejust overview: The 1600 variation points to a smooth bezel. The 1601 is a gold fluted one and 1603 sports an engine turned steel bezel. Today, the Oyster Perpetual series is hands down the most popular of the crown and the OP is some one the original dna.
