Back in the days people had the choice between a Day-Date and a Datejust if you were after a classic gold Rolex. Despite the higher price, most individuals favored the Day-Date. As a result, there are notably fewer gold Datejusts in existence. However, gold Datejusts still come at lower prices compared to your average Day-Date, making them quite a steal. This specific ref. 16238 dates back to 1995.
Encased in the timeless Datejust style, this 16238 features a 36mm Oyster case crafted in 18k yellow gold, a gold fluted bezel, and an 18k yellow gold super jubilee bracelet.
Both the case and bracelet remain in impeccable condition, indicative of minimal wear throughout the past three decades. While gold Datejusts are already a rarity, finding one in such exceptional condition is an even more uncommon occurrence.
