Rolex Datejust 16220 'Black Dial'

The Rolex Datejust reference 16220 was introduced in the year 1989 and remained in production at Rolex until the mid 2000s. This model, like its predecessor (the Datejust 16030), is equipped with a bezel which is no longer produced by Rolex: the so-called engine turned bezel. The Datejust 16220 is also the last reference to use this bezel.

This neo-vintage Rolex has been equipped with the 3135 calibre, in combination with the quick-set date function. It's the perfect compromise for the person who appreciates the aesthetics of a vintage Rolex, while wanting the security and convenience of modern mechanics. Steel Rolex watches are generally considered fairly modest. That is why most variants are equipped with conventional dials like black, white, silver, blue and gray. However, some more vivid and extravagant options are available. Like all Datejust references, this 16220 came with both the sporty Oyster bracelet, as well as the more classy Jubilee bracelet.

This Rolex Datejust 16220 from 2004 is the perfect watch for everyday use. Understated, classic and sporty with its Roman minute track on the black dial. The sharp case, the steel engine turned bezel, and the jubilee band that is very tight for its age are together in a beautiful condition.

What you need to know:
- Black dial with roman minute track
- Thick case and sharp lugs
- 62510 Jubilee with 555B endlinks 
- F573XXX serial dates from 2004
- 1 year mechanical warranty
- Free insured shipping 

Datejust

In the year 1945 the first Datejust was introduced under the 4467-reference, honouring the 40-year existence of Rolex. This was the first self-winding watch that featured both a watertight case, as well as a date-window that automatically changed the date after midnight. The Datejust was equipped with a serrated bezel and the famous Jubilee bracelet, which was designed especially for the Datejust. The date was indicated on the 3-hours position. 10 years later, in 1955, the datewindow was equipped with a cyclops lens that magnified the date up to two and a half times.

The most iconic models by Rolex were made to be used as toolwatches. The Datejust, however, did not serve a specific purpose. This model simply needed to be a classic, reliable, daily watch, suitable for every occasion in everyday life.
