We are thrilled to present an exquisite piece of horological history – the Rolex Datejust 16013 featuring the unique and sought-after Black Tapestry Factory Dial, a rare configuration that elevates this timepiece to a collector’s dream.

This particular Rolex Datejust 16013 is in superb condition for its age, with the case exhibiting only minimal signs of wear. The 18k yellow gold and stainless steel combination provides a balanced and refined look, suitable for any occasion. The Black Tapestry dial is a true standout, with its intricate pattern that catches the light in a way that most traditional dials simply cannot. The contrast of the gold hour markers and hands against the deep black background gives the watch a distinctive and elegant appearance, one that is not commonly found in this model. The date complication at 3 o’clock is framed by a smooth Cyclops lens, ensuring easy readability. The fluted gold bezel adds a touch of luxury to the design, while the jubilee bracelet maintains the classic aesthetic Rolex is famous for—comfortable, durable, and highly refined.

The black tapestry dial on this Datejust 16013 is a rare find, especially when compared to the more common champagne dial configurations. This dial style, with its textured design, not only enhances the visual appeal but also showcases the fine craftsmanship that Rolex is renowned for.

At the heart of this Rolex Datejust 16013 is the renowned automatic Rolex Caliber 3035, a self-winding 48hr power reserve movement that offers excellent precision and reliability, with updated quick-set date function.

This example is offered as a complete Full Singapore Set, dating back to its original purchase on 30th September 1980. The set includes the original box, papers, and purchase receipt, all of which have been carefully preserved over the years. The presence of these items significantly adds to the watch's value and provenance, ensuring that it has remained unmodified and retains its original components. Whether you're looking to add a special piece to your collection or acquire a watch that tells a unique story, this complete set makes it all the more special!
