FS: 1987 Rolex Datejust; Ref 160133; 18K Gold/Steel Two-Tone Oyster Perpetual

[Blake Townsend]

I recently acquired a 1987 Rolex Ref 160133 Gents 18K Gold Steel Two-Tone Oyster Perpetual Datejust that I posted about here While I love the piece, it wears very similar to my Tudor Oyster Prince that I posted about here. After rotating both for a few weeks, I've realized that having two vintage pieces of relatively small size is one too many, and I simply can't appreciate either one as much as I want to. Indeed, you can see that the size of the Tudor was an issue for me when I purchased it years ago. While I love the Datejust, the Tudor ticks all of the boxes that I need for a vintage watch. But I still need a Datejust, so I've decided to upgrade it for a modern 41 mm model.

So, the Datejust is for sale:

• Case size: 36 mm
• Included: Box, papers, some service receipts, appraisal papers, all from watchmakers in the San Francisco South Bay/Peninsula area
• Recent cleaning with bracelet removed for separate cleaning

Upon advice from this forum I chose not to have it polished. Thus you can choose to polish to your liking or keep it as-is with aged patina.

I'm asking $5,400 net to me, payable with PayPal +3% fees, wire transfer or an in-person transaction in the San Francisco Bay Area. I'll send it shipped and insured to the CONUS only. I have a sales and purchase history that you can check out or PM me about, and I'll ship within two business days of receipt of verified payment.

I got some questions about the bracelet and caseback, so here are some additional pictures that show their condition:
