Description: Rolex Datejust 116264
Pre-owned Rolex Datejust ref 116264 (2005 – 2006) was one of the last two iterations of the iconic Turn-o-Graph before the collection was discontinued in 2011. Ref. 116264 was produced alongside Yellow Rolesor ref. 116263 in what was the final bow of a very influential model in Rolex’s history. Both models feature sporty red seconds hands and red date wheels, perhaps as a nod to its origins as one of Rolex’s first tool watches. At the same time, they also swapped the engine-turned bezel from previous models for the fluted variety in gold to deliver the sophisticated aesthetic of the broader Datejust collection. This model in White Rolesor featuring a sharp blue dial is a fascinating edition of one of the first Rolex watches to sport a rotatable bezel.
