The Rolex Datejust 16220 was first put into production in 1989. It would remain in production until 1996.
One of the 16220’s most notable features is the engine-turned bezel that gives this Datejust a distinct look and helps to set it apart from other iterations. While this Rolex has a classic aesthetic, the inner workings are very modern thanks to the 3135 calibre. The 3135 calibre was Rolex’s go-to movement for many years, only recently replaced by the 3235. With the 3135 calibre, you can expect incredible precision and a 48-hour power reserve.
The Rolex Datejust 16220 is a 36mm watch, like many Datejust models. This makes it a great size for men and women alike. The dial colours available include various neutral tones like white, black, and silver. There are also some flashier options with sunburst blue and salmon. The Rolex 16220 is an all-stainless steel watch, which contributes to its affordability and versatility. You can find the Rolex Datejust 16220 with Jubilee or Oyster bracelets.
The Rolex Datejust 16220 is well-known for being the ideal mix of vintage Rolex style with modern Rolex technology. As you can see by looking at the Datejust 16220, it’s a perfect balance of sporty and dressy. It’s perfect for the office or a formal event, and it’s a great choice for a casual night out with friends.
As the Datejust continues to iterate, newer models look more and more modern. If you want something that still retains that classic Rolex look without sacrificing modern functionality, this could be the right watch for you. On top of all that, the Rolex Datejust 16220 is very affordable on the second-hand market, making it an ideal entry-level watch.
