About this watch
Among contemporary Datejust configurations, the 116243 with its 52-diamond bezel and silver jubilee diamond dial represents one of the most ornate expressions of Rolex's flagship dress watch. This 36mm yellow gold and steel Rolesor case strikes the perfect balance between precious metal luxury and everyday wearability, while the diamond-set elements elevate it beyond standard production models. The reference 116243 series, produced through the 2010s, marked Rolex's commitment to incorporating more gemstone work into their core collections. Collectors particularly value this configuration for its optimal sizing and the way the silver dial provides clean contrast against the warm gold elements.
