Great looking watch, and one of my favourite Rolex models. It is most definitely an object of desire, and has been so for a long time. Which year is it from?

What a beauty!!
1016 is one of my favorite Rolex references! An under rated watch, which deserves a lot of attention!
Great elegant design, low profile, good as a sport or dress watch as well.
Love it!
Enjoy in good health!
Cordial regards, Abel.
