Condition Report
Condition Report
Case:
This example features thick, symmetrical lugs and very well-defined chamfers. There is light scratching throughout the watch but is in overall very unworn condition. The edges of case are very sharp. It has been expertly cleaned by one of our technicians, but not at all polished.
Dial:
There are a few minor spots and scratches (note between "11" and "12" o'clock in particular), but the dial is overall in superb condition with beautiful round patinated lume plots, and matching luminous in the hands.
Movement:
The fully-serviced automatic-winding calibre by Rolex is in excellent condition.
Bracelet:
Genuine Rolex stainless steel Jubilee bracelet with 19 links and signed blade clasp stamped 62510H. Seemingly never-polished, showing only light wear throughout and relatively tight bracelet. Sized for ≈7"" wrist.

A timeless expression of Rolex elegance, this 1983 Vintage Datejust Ref. 16030 embodies the enduring appeal of the brand’s most iconic model. It features a crisp silver sunburst dial, baton hour markers, and luminous plots that have aged to a warm custard hue, showcasing a quiet patina that only decades of careful ownership can produce.
The classic 36mm stainless steel Oyster case is topped with its signature engine-turned bezel, offering a refined contrast to the silky smooth dial beneath the acrylic crystal. The original jubilee bracelet completes the unmistakable vintage Datejust aesthetic.
What truly distinguishes this piece is its completeness—accompanied by its original box and papers, this full set offers a rare opportunity to acquire not only a vintage timepiece of remarkable condition, but also its full provenance. A true collector’s piece, effortlessly blending daily wearability with investment-grade appeal.
As with all reference 16030 examples, the case back is correctly stamped ‘16000’—a common and correct practice for this series.
