AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

Pre-owned Rolex Datejust ref. 16030 with an elegant silver dial, full set, with original box and papers.

In many collector’s eyes, Rolex’s ref. 16XXX family represents the last of the vintage Datejust models, and the all-steel ref. 16030 especially.

By the time the series was released in 1977, the name was already more than 30-years old, having been launched the same year World War II ended. It took over from the four-digit ref. 16XX references—the range that had really finalized the overall design for the Datejust—and took it all the way up to 1988.

The ref. 16030 somehow managed to be understated but include a little touch of flamboyance that set it apart from others in the lineup.

The Datejust ref. 16030 was the direct replacement for the previous ref. 1603, which had been in production since 1959.

As with that watch, the reference number for this new generation was used to describe a piece with a 36mm stainless steel case, topped with a steel, engine turned bezel.
