The Rolex Datejust is a watch that needs no introduction, is one of the most successful models in the Rolex catalog and is credited as being the brand’s best-selling watch of all time. The 36mm white Datejust ref. 16014 is a somewhat understated and often overlooked model.
‍
The exclusivity that many seek from the Rolex brand is still there, only in a more wearable package that pairs a stainless steel case and bracelet with a matching white gold fluted bezel.
If one didn’t know any better, one might think that this reference was only available as a Rolex Datejust stainless steel watch.

the current generation’s design has never strayed too far from the core design of the original 1940s model. The date mechanism is ever-present at the 3-hour marker, and a self-winding movement still beats within the case. It’s Rolex’s commitment to the Datejust’s core design that makes the watch such a massive and enduring success.
