A Men's / Unisex Rolex Steel and Gold Datejust  Champagne Dial, Jubilee Bracelet. 1996 Model No.16233

Created in 1945, the Datejust was the first self-winding waterproof chronometer wristwatch to display the date in a window at 3 o'clock on the dial – hence its name. With its timeless aesthetics, functions and rich history, the Datejust is a watchmaking icon and one of the brand's most recognizable watches.  

In 1905, at the age of 24, Hans Wilsdorf founded a company in London specialising in the distribution of timepieces. He began to dream of a watch worn on the wrist. Wristwatches were not very precise at the time, but Hans Wilsdorf foresaw that they could become not only elegant, but also reliable. In 1945, the first Rolex Datejust was released, in celebration of the 40th anniversary of Rolex, it has remained largely unchanged for the past 60 years. The Datejust was the first automatic wristwatch with an automatically changing date window. It was housed in an Oyster case.
