Datejust "Linen Dial"

Rolex | Ref. 16014

Sold

Perfect for Spring - "Linen Dial" Datejust.

The Datejust here, reference 16014, features a beautiful and rare "Linen Dial" - T SWISS T stamped and Tritium luminous markers.

The case shows hardly any scratches or dents. Technically, we naturally make no compromises and have had the movement professionally serviced in our workshop. The bracelet has hardly any stretch and is also in very good condition.

The watch's second hand has slight steel spots, as can be seen in the pictures. However, we did not replace it, because the slightly worn second hand gives the watch's perfect overall look a very cool vintage charm and points to the watch's long history.

The stamping with "I" and the Rolex crown points to the year 1984 and thus perfectly matches this 8-Million Series from 1985.

Through the combination of the Jubilee bracelet, white gold bezel, Plexiglas, and Linen Dial, the watch gains a vintage aura that is so rare among normal Datejust models. We are in love.

The watch has been fully serviced by our workshop.
