‘Denim Blue’ Datejust w. Papers

There’s something about the colour blue and Swiss wristwatches – With Rolex it’s one of the most hard to get dial colours, vintage and modern alike, but especially with vintage pieces as these dials are no longer in production. All of the more reasons why we’re happy to offer you guys this gorgeous blue dialed Rolex Datejust with killer patinated Tritium. This time we managed to locate a reference 16000 with a stainless steel, smooth bezel and fully brushed Oyster bracelet, which gives this Datejust a badass Toolwatch look. The Denim Blue dial shows a soft sunburst motive that looks extremely handsome, especially outside in the day and sunlight.

That gorgeous blue dial features 10 indices which have been cut with a sharp facet on both sides, all indices are manufactured from 18k white gold, the same applies to the white golden hands and the Rolex coronet at the twelve o’clock position. About the indices, these have a really cool cut, the facets reflect the light in such a way that it never makes the indices look the same. All four lugs show the same size and thickness and the case is in an overall wonderful and strong condition. This Datejust is fitted to its original 78360/558B Oyster bracelet with very little stretch. However, the best feature about this Datejust is of course the blue dial with its contrasting heavy patina – The tritium against the indices and inside the hands developed a very attractive dark yellow patina, which gives a staggering contrast.. Something you really need to see with your own two eyes. Again, blue for the win!
