Rolex Datejust 36 Ref. 16014 (ca. 1985) – Rare Salmon-Pink Roman Dial with 18ct White Gold Bezel

The Rolex Datejust 36 Ref. 16014 from approximately 1985 is an exceptionally attractive vintage Rolex with a rare salmon-pink dial and Roman numerals. The combination of the rose-colored dial, the 18-karat white gold bezel, and the classic 36mm case gives this Datejust a particularly elegant and characterful appearance.

The watch is in very good overall condition and has been professionally cleaned and reconditioned. The original Rolex acrylic crystal is still present and in mint condition. The Oyster bracelet also presents itself in excellent condition with very good stretch.

The timing values have been tested and show good results. The serial number is no longer legible, which does not affect the function or authenticity of the watch.

Case & 18ct White Gold Bezel

The 36mm stainless steel case is in mint condition. The characteristic fluted bezel is made of 18 karat white gold and is in very good condition.

The case has been professionally cleaned, expertly reconditioned, and polished to a high sheen. Care has been taken to preserve the classic lines and proportions of the Datejust.

The combination of stainless steel and 18 karat white gold is one of the iconic configurations of the Rolex Datejust and gives this piece a particularly elegant appearance.

Rare Salmon-Pink Roman Dial

The absolute highlight of this Datejust is the rare salmon-pink dial with Roman numerals.

The dial is in mint condition and presents itself exceptionally beautifully. The warm, pinkish tone changes its effect depending on the light and gives the watch a particularly elegant and individual look.

Such unusual dial variants are particularly interesting in vintage Datejust models and make this piece a striking alternative to the classic silver, black, or champagne-colored dials.

Original Rolex Acrylic Crystal

A particularly beautiful detail is the still present original Rolex acrylic crystal.

The crystal is in mint condition and has only been carefully polished. The preserved original crystal emphasizes the authentic vintage character of this Datejust.
