Crafted entirely in 18k yellow gold and fitted with the collection&#8217;s signature Jubilee bracelet, the ref. 116238 is a modern interpretation of the original Datejust model that debuted in 1945. Representing a contemporary and luxurious take on a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.bobswatches.com\/about-rolex.html\" title=\"historic classic from Rolexs archives\">historic classic from Rolex&#8217;s archives<\/a>, the Datejust 116238 is beloved by enthusiasts and sought after by many collectors.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">36mm Oyster Case In 18k Yellow Gold<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Developed in 1926, Rolex\u2019s famous Oyster case is credited with being the world\u2019s first truly waterproof watch case. Rolex has always used the Oyster case for its Datejust watches, as it provides supreme water-resistance and protection for the movement. This is an incredibly important feature for the Datejust, which is often worn as an everyday timepiece by countless individuals all around the globe.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>As for the reference 116238, it <a href=\"https:\/\/www.bobswatches.com\/rolex-blog\/history-of-time\/complete-history-rolex-oyster-case.html\" title=\"features its Oyster case\">features its Oyster case<\/a> in solid 18k yellow gold. The appeal here is that Rolex is able to pair this luxurious alloy with the durability and security that the Oyster case provides, making this watch a truly exceptional timepiece. It\u2019s also important to note that Rolex\u2019s modern 18k gold alloy is a proprietary blend created inside its own foundry to ensure exceptional durability and extraordinary sheen that lasts for generations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Finally, the case of the Datejust 116238 measures the classic and highly versatile 36mm. This is the original size of the Datejust and today, it is considered the standard Rolex watch size. The 36mm Datejust case is the most popular because it is so universal &#8211; not sitting too big or too small on the wrist, the classic 36mm sizing of the ref. 116238 means that it can easily be worn by both men and women.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Twinlock Winding Crown<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>The Rolex Datejust ref. 116238 features the modern Twinlock crown, which is a screw-down winding crown that features two sets of O-ring gaskets &#8211; one under the crown to push against the case tube to create a wall against outside moisture, the second inside the tube surrounding the winding stem as a second layer of protection.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1180\" height=\"787\" src=\"https:\/\/www.bobswatches.com\/rolex-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/Rolex_datejust_116238-5D3_9797-3-Edit-1.jpg\" alt=\"Rolex 116238 Datejust 36mm 18k Yellow Gold\" class=\"wp-image-47090\" title=\"Rolex Datejust ref. 116238\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.bobswatches.com\/rolex-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/Rolex_datejust_116238-5D3_9797-3-Edit-1.jpg 1180w, https:\/\/www.bobswatches.com\/rolex-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/Rolex_datejust_116238-5D3_9797-3-Edit-1-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.bobswatches.com\/rolex-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/Rolex_datejust_116238-5D3_9797-3-Edit-1-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.bobswatches.com\/rolex-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/Rolex_datejust_116238-5D3_9797-3-Edit-1-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.bobswatches.com\/rolex-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/Rolex_datejust_116238-5D3_9797-3-Edit-1-570x380.jpg 570w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1180px) 100vw, 1180px\" \/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Classic and Timeless Dial<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>The dial of the ref. 116238 follows the same classic and timeless design language as the rest of the Datejust collection. The ref. 116238 features more traditional dial colors like white, black, and champagne, which can make it feel even more refined and luxurious. In terms of hour markers, Rolex Datejust 116238 watches can have classic stick indexes, Roman numerals, Arabic numerals, or even diamonds.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Gold Fluted Bezel<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>A fluted bezel is elegant, elevated, and one of the defining design elements of Rolex watches. The very first Rolex Datejust watches featured fluted bezels, and while Rolex produces countless Datejust watches that do not include this now-signature design feature, a fluted bezel is emblematic of the collection. Even the Rolex clocks that you see in airports have fluted bezels on them, so when it came to the reference 116238, a solid 18k gold fluted bezel is an obvious and highly appropriate choice.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Date Window<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>The Rolex Datejust was the world\u2019s first self-winding chronometer wristwatch to feature a date mechanism that automatically changed on its dial. But, in the earliest Datejust models, there just wasn\u2019t the technology for the mechanism to change the date instantly at midnight. Instead, these early Datejust models featured a date window that would slowly change to the following day. Then in the 1950s, Rolex released a new mechanism that allowed the date to instantly jump to the new date, right at the stroke of midnight. Today, this date window and its instant change is a defining feature of the Datejust.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1180\" height=\"787\" src=\"https:\/\/www.bobswatches.com\/rolex-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/MicrosoftTeams-image-5.jpg\" alt=\"Rolex 116238 Datejust Gold 36mm Jubilee Bracelet \" class=\"wp-image-47092\" title=\"Rolex Datejust 116238\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.bobswatches.com\/rolex-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/MicrosoftTeams-image-5.jpg 1180w, https:\/\/www.bobswatches.com\/rolex-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/MicrosoftTeams-image-5-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.bobswatches.com\/rolex-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/MicrosoftTeams-image-5-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.bobswatches.com\/rolex-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/MicrosoftTeams-image-5-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.bobswatches.com\/rolex-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/MicrosoftTeams-image-5-570x380.jpg 570w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1180px) 100vw, 1180px\" \/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Sapphire Crystal With Cyclops Lens<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Today, the Cyclops lens is so much a part of the Datejust\u2019s identity that it&#8217;s hard to imagine the watch without it. Therefore, it may surprise you to learn that it wasn&#8217;t until 1953 that Rolex introduced this feature onto the Datejust. Originally, the Datejust\u2019s crystal (and the bubble-like Cyclops magnification lens that protrudes from the outer surface) was made from acrylic. However, on the modern Datejust ref. 116238, the crystal and its Cyclops lens are both made out of scratch-resistant synthetic sapphire.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Caliber 3135 Automatic Movement<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>The Rolex Datejust is known for its automatic chronometer-certified movements and the Caliber 3135 inside the reference 116238 is one of the brand\u2019s most famous. Used by Rolex for nearly 30 years, this movement was powerful, reliable, and accurate. Besides being used in the Datejust, Rolex trusted this movement for the Submariner Date, Sea-Dweller, Deepsea, Date, Yacht-Master 40.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The Caliber 3135 used inside the ref. 116238 is an in-house manufactured, COSC chronometer-certified movement that operates at a frequency of 28,800bph with a respectable 48-hour power reserve. Other notable features of this movement include its \u2018hacking seconds\u2019 (when the second hand comes to a complete stop when the crown is pulled out), and \u2018Quickset\u2019 functionality, which allows the date to be changed without disturbing the timekeeping hands and messing up the time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Buying a Rolex Datejust 116238<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Produced by Rolex from approximately 2004 to 2018, the Datejust 116238 is discontinued and no longer available at a retail level. However, this modern Datejust reference can still be found on the pre-owned market, and it is now highly desirable as it holds the distinction of being the last solid gold Datejust watch that Rolex ever produced. Additionally, since this model was only discontinued several years ago, buying a pre-owned example usually means that it&#8217;s likely to be in very good condition with minimal wear.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1180\" height=\"787\" src=\"https:\/\/www.bobswatches.com\/rolex-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/Rolex_Datejust_116238_5D3_6110-2-Edit-3.jpg\" alt=\"Rolex 116238 Datejust 36 Yellow Gold\" class=\"wp-image-47094\" title=\"Rolex Datejust ref. 116238\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.bobswatches.com\/rolex-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/Rolex_Datejust_116238_5D3_6110-2-Edit-3.jpg 1180w, https:\/\/www.bobswatches.com\/rolex-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/Rolex_Datejust_116238_5D3_6110-2-Edit-3-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.bobswatches.com\/rolex-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/Rolex_Datejust_116238_5D3_6110-2-Edit-3-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.bobswatches.com\/rolex-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/Rolex_Datejust_116238_5D3_6110-2-Edit-3-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.bobswatches.com\/rolex-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/Rolex_Datejust_116238_5D3_6110-2-Edit-3-570x380.jpg 570w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1180px) 100vw, 1180px\" \/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Rolex Datejust 116238 Frequently Asked Questions<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">What is the 116238?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>The 116238 is a specific reference number of the Rolex Datejust collection. This reference number corresponds to the 36mm version of the Datejust in solid 18k yellow gold with a fluted bezel that was manufactured between 2004 and 2018.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">When was the Datejust 116238 produced?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>The Datejust 116238 was produced by Rolex between 2004 and 2018 and is known for its full 18k yellow gold construction, along with the powerhouse Caliber 3135 that powered it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Do Rolex Datejust watches hold their value?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Yes. The Datejust is the <a href=\"\/rolex\/\" title=\"most popular Rolex watch\">most popular Rolex watch<\/a> ever made. This model is worn by businessmen and celebrities alike because of its universal appeal, reliability, and timeless design. The Datejust 116238 is going to hold value particularly well because it is forged out of solid 18k gold.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Can you wear a Rolex Datejust every day?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Absolutely, and you should! The Rolex Datejust features a waterproof Oyster case that makes it incredibly durable and suitable for everyday wear and use. The automatic Caliber 3135 inside gets its power from the natural motion of your arm, meaning that as long as you keep wearing your Datejust, you won\u2019t ever need to wind your watch.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1180\" height=\"787\" src=\"https:\/\/www.bobswatches.com\/rolex-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/Rolex_datejust_116238-5D3_9803-3-Edit-5.jpg\" alt=\"Rolex 116238 Datejust 36mm Yellow Gold Jubilee Bracelet \" class=\"wp-image-47093\" title=\"Rolex Datejust 116238\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.bobswatches.com\/rolex-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/Rolex_datejust_116238-5D3_9803-3-Edit-5.jpg 1180w, https:\/\/www.bobswatches.com\/rolex-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/Rolex_datejust_116238-5D3_9803-3-Edit-5-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.bobswatches.com\/rolex-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/Rolex_datejust_116238-5D3_9803-3-Edit-5-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.bobswatches.com\/rolex-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/Rolex_datejust_116238-5D3_9803-3-Edit-5-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.bobswatches.com\/rolex-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/Rolex_datejust_116238-5D3_9803-3-Edit-5-570x380.jpg 570w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1180px) 100vw, 1180px\" \/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">How much is the Datejust 116238 worth?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Today, the Datejust 116238 is usually worth between $18,000 and $25,000 on the open market. Due to a large amount of gold in its case and bracelet, the reference 116238 is one of the most expensive and luxurious standard-production Datejust watches, and its collectibility as the last solid gold Datejust watch means that there are a number of buyers looking to add it to their permanent collections.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">What is the price of a Datejust 116238?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>The price of a Datejust 116238 can be anywhere between $18,000 and $25,000 when purchased on the pre-owned market. The price varies depending on its dial style and overall condition. While all Datejust 116238 watches feature solid 18k yellow gold cases, fluted bezels, and Jubilee bracelets, the style of the dial (along with the condition of the watch and whether or not it still has its original box and papers) can influence the price by up to several thousand dollars.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">How can I buy a Datejust 116238?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>The Datejust 116238 is no longer made by Rolex, so you cannot buy it at a retail level from a boutique or authorized dealer. The only way to purchase a ref. 116238 is on the secondary market, and the safest and most secure way is through a trusted and reputable seller who can offer you protections like a warranty and a lifetime authenticity guarantee.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">How can you tell if a Rolex Datejust is real?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Rolex watches are one of the most counterfeited products in the world. Unfortunately, there are a lot of fakes out there and people who are happy to sell them to you. If the price sounds too good to be true, it probably is.
