Product name: Datejust White 16234
Reference budget: 900,000 to 1,000,000 yen
Popular generations: 20s/30s/40s/50s/60s
In the mid-1980s, along with the boom in American vintage clothing and Antique goods in Japan, Antique watches were reevaluated and the Rolex Datejust also attracted attention.
As various things are eliminated over time, the practicality of Rolex stands out, and the Datejust, with its many "recognizable" designs such as the fluted bezel, Jubilee bracelet, and even Rolesor and Cyclops lens, has become Rolex's undisputed signature model.
Furthermore, fashion in the 1980s was a time when high-end and DC brands (designer brands) were at the forefront, and the fact that the Datejust and Day-Date went well with suits and tailored jackets also contributed to their popularity.
Even today, there are many Datejust and Day-Date watches manufactured in the 1980s and 1990s on the Japanese Used market, proving how popular they were at the time. With its timeless design, it remains a hugely popular model.
