Collection: Rolex Datejust 36mm

The 36mm Datejust is the classic Rolex size, and the one most people picture when they think of the watch. This collection brings together our pre-owned Datejust 36mm pieces, from vintage references like the 1601 and 16013 to the 16233 and modern 116200, 116233 and 116234. Every listing shows its reference number, metal, bracelet and dial, so you can compare them side by side.

Original or custom diamonds

Many of these watches have custom aftermarket diamonds on the dial, the bezel or both. That work was added after the watch left the Rolex factory and is not original to the manufacturer. Others are fully original. Each product page states which parts are factory and which are custom, so you always know exactly what you're buying.

How to choose your Datejust 36mm

Metal. Two-tone yellow gold and steel is the most popular combination here, followed by stainless steel and two-tone rose gold.

Bracelet. The Jubilee is the dressier five-link bracelet; the Oyster is the sportier three-link option.

Bezel. A fluted bezel gives the traditional Rolex look, a smooth bezel is more understated, and a diamond bezel adds sparkle around the edge. See all Rolex diamond bezel watches.

Dial. Choose from blue, black, white, pink, champagne, green and red, including mother-of-pearl, floral and fully diamond-paved dials.
