The Rolex Datejust reference 116138 arrives in a 36mm round yellow gold case, offering a timeless silhouette that has defined dress watchmaking for decades. Protecting the dial beneath is a scratch-resistant sapphire crystal, while the solid case back and screw-in crown contribute to the watch's purposeful construction.
The black dial lends the piece a bold, elegant contrast against the warm yellow gold case and strap. The leather bracelet, secured by a Rolex concealed folding Crownclasp in yellow gold, completes the look with a cohesive tone throughout. Power comes from an automatic movement housed within.
This example is accompanied by its original box and papers, making it a well-documented piece for the collector or enthusiast seeking a complete set.
