Details
A Mark Of Distinction
The two-tone Datejust is a foundational piece in any collection, but the addition of a Tiffany & Co. signature transforms it from a classic into a piece of history. This co-branding represents a bygone era when the world’s most respected jeweler was permitted to add its own name to the dials of the world’s most respected watchmaker. It is a subtle detail that carries immense weight, turning the most recognizable watch on the planet into a rare and sought-after variant.
The Quintessential Rolex, Elevated
This example from 1981 captures the classic aesthetic of the reference 16013 perfectly. The combination of stainless steel and 18-karat yellow gold, the fluted bezel, and the Jubilee bracelet define the Datejust for an entire generation. What sets this piece apart is the crisp Tiffany & Co. stamp on its silver sunburst dial. The dial itself has developed an even, warm patina that adds genuine character, making it a truly unique example of an otherwise ubiquitous watch.
A Well-Preserved And Honest Example
The watch is in very good condition. The case and bracelet have been professionally detailed and present cleanly. The silver dial is in excellent shape, with its Tiffany & Co. signature clear and legible. The two-tone Jubilee bracelet shows moderate stretch consistent with a watch of this era, but it remains secure and comfortable on the wrist. As with every watch we offer, this piece has been verified as mechanically sound and is ready to wear.
The Perfect Entry Into Co-Branded Collecting
This is the ideal watch for someone who wants the reliability and classic style of a Datejust but with a detail that makes it truly special. It offers a tangible connection to the history of luxury retail in America without sacrificing any of the model's daily wearability. It is a confident choice that works in any setting, but one that will always stand out to those who know what they are looking at.
