A timeless icon of Swiss watchmaking, this Rolex Datejust ref. 16014 from 1982 embodies classic Rolex elegance with desirable vintage character. Featuring the highly sought-after grey “Buckley” dial with distinctive black Roman numerals and elegant “cigarette” hands, this example offers both collectability and everyday wearability.
Housed in a 36 mm stainless-steel case with a white gold fluted bezel, the watch retains the balanced proportions that made the Datejust a benchmark in men’s luxury watches for decades. The automatic movement has been recently serviced (12 February 2025), ensuring reliable performance and peace of mind for its next owner.
Offered with its original Rolex leather wallet, booklets, and certificate, this piece represents an excellent opportunity to acquire a complete and well-presented vintage Datejust.
The dial nickname comes from John Buckley, a New York–based Rolex retailer who reportedly ordered large batches in this configuration. Rolex never used the term officially but they feature painted roman numerals (not applied tothe dial) and a clean aesthetic which adds character.
This ring will be presented in a Butler & Rose jewelry box, accompanied by an insurance valuation, affirming the quality and authenticity of the gemstone and metal.
All of our orders are gift ready. Wrapped in elegance and ready for gifting, this piece is a splendid choice for marking special occasions or as a cherished addition to your personal collection.
To preserve its brilliance, we recommend periodic professional cleaning and avoiding contact with harsh chemicals or abrasive materials. Alternatively, applying a small amount of washing-up liquid with a toothbrush and warm water will return luster to the stones.
