A superb unpolished Rolex Oyster Perpetual Datejust in solid stainless steel with original finish case, near mint factory printed silver dial, stunning caliber 3035 movement freshly serviced and keeping chronometer grade time with original full length Jubilee bracelet. A remarkable example of this classic Rolex model 16030, this timepiece must only have been worn a few dozen times as there are only very light signs of wear throughout and certainly looks to me like it has never been polished with sharp edges and original finish brushed lugs. The unique engine turned bezel give it that awesome vintage look on the wrist. A truly beautiful 36mm Rolex Datejust in rare condition, ready to wear!
