# Rolex DateJust 36mm RBR Steel & 18ct Yellow Gold Oyster 116243 2012

## Price

**£10,495** (Finance available from £987.4/month)

## Description

This 2012 Rolex DateJust 36mm RBR is crafted in Oystersteel and 18ct yellow gold. Featuring a champagne factory diamond dial with 10 diamond hour markers, gold hands and the signature date display at 3 o'clock beneath the Cyclops lens. Finished with a factory diamond-set bezel (RBR) and the iconic Oyster bracelet, it offers an exceptional blend of elegance and brilliance.
Introduced in 1945, the DateJust was the world's first self-winding wristwatch with an automatically changing date display. The reference 116243 combines classic Rolesor construction with the Rolex calibre 3135 movement, while the factory diamond-set bezel and champagne diamond dial elevate this reference into one of the collection's most luxurious configurations.
This watch has been checked against technical records to guarantee authenticity and clean history.
Comes with original box and papers.
Ref: 116243
