About this watch

Grey sunbeam Roman numerals paired with yellow gold create an understated elegance that distinguishes this Rolex Datejust 116243 from its more common counterparts. The sophisticated grey dial catches light with subtle radial patterns, while 52 diamonds encircle the 36mm yellow gold case in brilliant contrast. Roman numerals at cardinal positions add classical refinement to what has become one of the most enduring dial combinations in the Datejust lineage. This Rolesor configuration balances the warmth of gold with steel's durability, exemplifying the technical mastery that has defined the reference 116243 since its introduction.
