Latest Vintage Piece
2015 Rolex Datejust II 41mm 116300 (retired model) $11,300.00 CAD. 505-00601
It took Rolex over a century years to make a basic dress watch bigger than 36mm, when in 2009 they introduced the Datejust II. I guess great mills really do grind slow, but 100 years? Rolex has always had sporty 40mm offerings but a larger more conservative design just didn’t exist until the Datejust II. A simple dial with time and date display but now measuring a full 41mm.
Bigger than a Submariner, bigger than a Daytona. In fact it looks much much bigger than both because there is no thick bezel compressing the area of the dial. I’m sure there are many people who would have bought a Rolex, but the traditional conservative 36mm size just isn’t what some were looking for. Thicker hands, bigger markers with lots of luminous material makes the watch much more functional and visible in all lighting conditions.
Our estate example has only been lightly worn by its previous owner. Purchased in Toronto November 2015 there is only minor evidence of any use.
If the warranty card wasn’t already dated and filled out you’d swear it was only a few months old.
It comes with everything from the original delivery; inner/outer boxes, warranty card, instructions, chronometer tag, wallet etc. all in perfect condition. This model has been retired for a few years now, replaced by the slightly more conservative Datejust 41 126300. The new model has more “size appropriate” hour markers and a slightly thinner bezel. Both models are beautiful in their basic approach to simple timekeeping but there is something about the original design that we find more appealing; maybe it’s because you can no longer get them new.
The Datejust II was only made for 7 years when is was retired and replaced by the Datejust 41. Despite being a relatively modern Rolex the basic all steel DJII ref:116300 is nowhere near as common as the DJ41 ref:126300. As of today (Feb. 28, 2026) Chrono24.com is only showing 179 complete examples of DJIIs compared to 2271 DJ41s and Rolex is still producing many more every day. Given the relative scarcity of the Datejust II and a slightly lower price, we feel this is a much better model to spend a bit of money on. This excellent example is running great and keeping excellent time. We are happy to provide the next owner with a complimentary 1-year warranty. Estate priced at $11,300.00 CAD. Stock #505-00601.
