Latest Vintage Piece
2010 Rolex 116334 Datejust II 41mm serviced March 2024. $10,500.00 CAD. 505-00493
It took Rolex over 100 years to make a traditional dress watch bigger than around 36mm. I guess great mills really do grind slow, but 100 years? They have 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. The same size as the current generation Submariner, larger than a Daytona, or a GMT-Master II. It looks much much bigger than those because it doesn’t have a thick rotating bezel.
In fact the crystal diameter of this Datejust II measures 32.5mm and a 2024 Submariner’s is only 30.5mm. The snow white dial adds to the illusion of an even larger diameter.
I’m sure there are many people who would have bought a Rolex Datejust in the past, but the traditional conservative smaller just wasn’t what they were looking for. Model 116334 is a upgrade over the basic Datejust II with the addition of an 18 karat white gold bezel.
The fluted design has been a Rolex styling element for over half a century. Thicker hands, bigger markers with lots of luminous material makes the watch much more functional and visible in all lighting conditions.
Our estate example was serviced in March of 2024 and running well within chronometer specifications of accuracy.
Servicing for modern Rolex watches are recommended at 10 year intervals, although it is not uncommon to go longer without any maintenance. The watch is in excellent condition and looks almost like new as it received a light polish when serviced. There is no stretch or sag of any kind in the full length (12 link) Oyster bracelet.
The bracelet is equipped with the Rolex “EasyLink” that allows another 5mm of extra room for those hot humid days. Included with purchase is a 1-year complimentary warranty for the new owner. This watch does not come with its original box and documentation. The original jumbo Datejust 116334 has been retired and replaced with the slightly more subtle 126334 Datejust 41 that can be seen on the Rolex website where it is priced at $13,150.00 CAD. Our estate Datejust II is estate priced at $10,500.0 CAD. Stock #505-00493.
