1984 Rolex Datejust (Ref. 16014) Silver "Linen" Dial

The Rolex Datejust is one of the most iconic and beloved Rolex watches ever made. This classic dress watch has been produced by the Swiss luxury watchmaker since 1945 and has remained a timeless classic that is instantly recognizable as an item of refined quality and functional design. The Datejust was designed for everyday wear, and its sleek and elegant design makes it one of the most universally loved watches for both men and women.

One of the largest evolutions for the Rolex Datejust model lineup was at the end of the 1970s with the introduction of the first "flat dial" Datejust. The white gold bezel was upgraded from 14k to 18k white gold and the movement was vastly upgraded to the Rolex cal. 3035 quick-set movement. These Datejust variations are often referred to as being transitional as they still feature the more classic acrylic crystals whilst housing many advancements.

The original Rolex 62510H Jubilee bracelet with 555 end pieces retains 20 links that show normal stretch for the style and age of the bracelet and will fit up to a 7 3/4-inch wrist.

DIAL & HANDS

The original silver "linen" dial remains in exceptional condition while displaying beautiful depth and character. The tritium lume plots have achieved a lovely creamy yellow patina, under UV light inspection there is subtle degradation in some of the plots but remain fully intact. The original tritium hands match the dial perfectly and exhibit no degradation under UV light inspection.
