Rolex - 1984 Rolex Datejust (Ref. 16014) Silver "Tiffany & Co." Dial

1984 Rolex Datejust (Ref. 16014) Silver "Tiffany & Co." Dial

The Rolex Datejust is one of the most iconic and beloved Rolex watches ever made. This classic dress watch has been produced by the Swiss luxury watchmaker since 1945 and has remained a timeless classic that is instantly recognizable as an item of refined quality and functional design. The Datejust was designed for everyday wear, and its sleek and elegant design makes it one of the most universally loved watches for both men and women.

One of the largest evolutions for the Rolex Datejust model lineup was at the end of the 1970s with the introduction of the first "flat dial" Datejust. The movement was vastly upgraded to the Rolex cal. 3035 quick-set movement. These Datejust variations are often referred to as "transitional" as they still feature the more classic acrylic crystals and tritium lume whilst housing many advancements.

“Tiffany & Co.” signed Rolex watches are the elusive and forever desirable variants of our favorite models offered by the horological house. Beginning in the late 1950s, Tiffany & Co. began printing their name on the dials of watches from various Swiss brands that were sold through their retail locations. Though they worked with a variety of brands in this era, the “Tiffany & Co.” co-branded Rolex are by far the most talked about, well-known, and collected amongst the lot, and for good reason. The relationship between Tiffany and Rolex carried on until the 1990s when Tiffany & Co. entered into an exclusive partnership with Patek Philippe. Interestingly, the Tiffany & Co. logos were printed by hand at the Tiffany Location in New York City, not by Rolex.

CASE & BRACELET

The excellent case retains extremely crisp, thick, and symmetrical lugs that show signs of light use with no notable evidence of previous polishing present. The 18K white gold fluted bezel is also in impressive condition and is believed to remain unpolished with sharp edges and nominal wear. The Rolex 62510H Jubilee bracelet with 555 end pieces is era-correct but dates slightly later than the watch and retains 19 links that show light stretch and will fit up to a 7 1/4-inch wrist. The case also features the signature hand-engraved "Tiffany & Co." stock number on the back of the top left lug.

DIAL & HANDS

The original silver sunburst "Tiffany & Co." co-branded dial is in wonderful vintage condition, exhibiting no notable age or damage to the dial itself. The tritium lume plots do exhibit degradation throughout when inspected under UV light inspection and feature a subtle eggshell patina. The hands are OEM Rolex luminova service units. The white date wheel is original with "open" 6's and 9's.
