The ref. 16234 was among the first five-digit offerings within the Datejust family, and importantly one of the first to also use a sapphire crystal. It also featured the jumping date and the newly updated Cal. 3135 movement. This reference 16234 is in excellent pre-owned condition, showing only minor signs of wear. The watch is keeping time within factory specifications. Comes as watch only with a complementary leather watch pouch.
