Rolex DateJust TT 16013

Recommended Posts

The Rolex DateJust 16013 from 1981.

 

Dear All,

 

This is my first two tone watch.

I have never been a fan of yellow gold, but I was looking for one as a dress watch.

When I received it, I have been wearing it for a week non-stop.

 

The complete set!

 

A great find again from my buddy at subgmt.com

My only other watch which has such a complete set is my 16610.

Conclusion

 

I’m too young to wear this kind of watch in my opinion.

I should have to wait for another 15 years to match it.

 

I like it very much, but as usual, I can’t keep a watch in a box and never wear it.

So, it is now traded for a tritium explorer II from 1995!

 

Thanks for looking and reading.

 

Cheers

Good trade Stephane! I am with you.....not a huge fan of TT myself. Great pics though and thanks for sharing!

Thanks for the nice words!

Stephane I never tire of looking at your watches. I like stainless as well but I do like the two tone sub with the blue dial. Have you ever considered one of those?

Well, not yet. I think gold isn't my thing and to be honest, blue dial neither :wounded1:

Very nice Stephane! One gen traded for another, can't go wrong with that!Cheers,JJ

That indeed the way I'm going these days: not spending a dime more, only trading and selling :whistling:

Explorer II: :thumbsupsmileyanim:

And white dial/tritium ...serviced... I hope I'll like it for a while :o

Beautiful watch and great pics, Stephane.

Here in Texas, the TT DJ's are de rigueur. Last weekend at a Wal-Mart store in Uvalde, Texas, I saw a young hunter wearing a TT DJ, it went well w/ his camo! He looked to be about 35-40 to me.

I do like my TT frankenjust for dress occasions, but I must admit, it doesn't get alot of wrist time. But you made a good trade for a white Explorer II- a very nice no bling sportsman's type of watch!

Thanks for sharing. And look forward to seeing the EXP II when you get it.
