A truly exceptional Rolex Datejust reference 16013 dating to 1983, professionally restored by a master watchmaker to an outstanding standard while retaining all of its original Rolex components.
This is not simply a polished watch. The stainless steel case has been expertly recut to restore its original sharp factory lines, while the solid 18ct yellow gold fluted bezel has also been meticulously recut, giving the watch the crisp definition of an exceptionally well-preserved example.
The original gold linen dial is immaculate. One of Rolex's most desirable dial finishes, the intricate woven texture catches the light beautifully and gives the watch remarkable depth and warmth. Combined with the yellow gold baton markers and matching hands, it is an effortlessly elegant configuration that perfectly captures the character of the early 1980s Datejust.
Mechanically, the movement has been fully serviced and is running exactly as it should. The watch is presented on a brand new Epsom leather strap, offering a refined alternative to the traditional bracelet and allowing the exceptional case proportions to take centre stage.
For anyone wanting the appearance of an exceptional collector-grade Datejust with the reassurance of a freshly serviced movement, this is an outstanding example.
