Description from the seller

The Rolex Datejust Ref. 16238 Onyx stands as a testament to both timeless craftsmanship and elusive rarity. Unlike standard metal dials, the Onyx dial accented with diamond-set 6 and 9 markers is a scarce treasure

What truly sets this timepiece apart are its historical and symbolic layers. With Onyx steeped in millennia of cultural significance, owning this watch connects you to a rich tapestry of heritage. Furthermore, its 18k gold riveted bracelet, a quirky relic from Rolex's lesser-known stories, adds to its charm and desirability.
