About this watch
Rolex Steel and Yellow Gold Rolesor Datejust 36 Watch - 52 Diamond Bezel - Silver Index Dial - Oyster Bracelet - 116243 sio
At the heart of the Rolex Datejust 116243 beats the perpetual, self-winding caliber 3135 movement, the mechanical foundation that has earned this reference its reputation among collectors for precision and reliability since its introduction in the mid-2000s. This 36mm yellow gold case paired with the distinctive silver index dial creates the quintessential Rolesor aesthetic—Rolex's proprietary term for their steel and gold combination that has defined luxury sports watches for decades. The 52-diamond bezel elevates this particular configuration beyond the standard fluted or smooth bezels, transforming each light reflection into a calculated display of brilliance. Reference 116243 represents the modern evolution of the classic Datejust proportions, maintaining the original 36mm sizing that Rolex established as the standard of elegance in 1945.
