The first rotating bezel on a Rolex watch appeared on the Datejust Turn-o-Graph in the 1950s. Predating even the Submariner and GMT Master, the Turn-o-Graph is an integral piece of Rolex history. This model is often referred to as the "Thunderbird", a moniker it earned after it was chosen by the US Air Force as the watch of their aerobatic team by the same name. The used Rolex 116261 is a modern take on the brand's first official tool watch, offering a handsome Everose Rolesor finish of 904L Oystersteel and 18 karat pink gold, a silver dial adorned with matching rose gold hour markers and hands, a sporty red seconds hand, and a coordinating red date wheel. The ref. 116261 is an excellent option to consider if you've had your sights set on a rose gold Rolex.

Just a beautiful watch, always wanted the Thunderbird version of the Datejust so when it became available I made a trade of a Datejust II that I hardly wore.
This watch is in excellent, "barely worn" condition. The strap is out-of-the-box condition, and the design of the watch itself is beautiful. Definitely will be part of the long-term collection!
