The Rolex Datejust 36 reference 116233 is the modern Yellow Rolesor evolution of
the most influential dress watch ever made, produced from roughly 2005 to 2018 and
defined by its combination of Oystersteel, 18k yellow gold fluted bezel, and the
long-running Caliber 3135 movement. The Datejust line itself dates to 1945, introduced
for Rolex’s fortieth anniversary as the first self-winding chronometer wristwatch
with an automatically changing date — a watch that established the visual vocabulary
nearly every modern dress watch still draws on. This example carries the champagne
dial with applied diamond hour markers, the most coveted of the 116233’s many factory
dial configurations and a setup that elevates the piece from everyday Datejust into
something genuinely dressy. The 36mm Oyster case combines the durability of Oystersteel
with the warmth of 18k yellow gold on the fluted bezel, winding crown, and bracelet
center links. The Cyclops lens magnifies the date at three o’clock. Powered by the
in-house Rolex Caliber 3135 with paramagnetic blue Parachrom hairspring, approximately
48 hours of power reserve, and Superlative Chronometer certification. Water-resistant
to 100 meters via the Twinlock screw-down crown. Pre-owned in excellent condition.
