Rolex was founded in 1905 by Hans Wilsdorf. Since its inception the brand has been a trailblazer in classic watch design and superlative quality. This particular example is a unique example of the collaboration between Rolex and Tiffany & Co. For decades Rolex produced watches for Tiffany & Co. and co-branded the dials. These examples are highly coveted and command a much higher value as compared to the Rolex mainline watches. This Oyster Perpetual Datejust reference 16013 is a two tone stainless steel and 18K gold model with two tone jubilee bracelet. The watch is powered by a chronometer grade caliber 3035 quickset automatic movement. The case measures 36mm with 20mm lugs. This watch is both a daily wear and special occasion timepiece.
Condition Report: Dial is in excellent condition showing no apparent signs of aging. The case is in very good condition showing minor polishing and scratches commensurate with age. The bracelet shows stretch commensurate with age. The movement is running at the time of cataloging. Overall the present example is in very good condition.

Pre-owned watches, unless still in original packaging or never worn, will likely have some degree of wear and scratches. This should be expected for many of the watches offered in auction. Even if a watch is running, bidders and buyers should expect that all movements will require maintenance. Watches are not guaranteed to be keeping time. Fortuna recommends that all successful buyers promptly take their watches to a professional watchmaker for evaluation.

Any reference to condition in a condition report will not include a full description of condition, and for example, may not specify all faults, alteration, adaptation, mechanical replacements or imperfections to the movement, case, or dial.
