Rolex Oyster Perpetual

When it comes to "budget" Rolex, there are few watches more attractive than an Oyster Perpetual. It’s not hard to make the argument that the Oyster Perpetual is one of the most versatile time-only watches on the market, as all it takes is a strap change to transform this watch go a tuxedo accoutrement to a field watch or BBQ grill timer. When you factor in that they have been made available in a broad variety of fun dial color configurations, the appeal grows even more. This particular example, a Reference 14233, dates to circa 1991 and features a 34mm 18K yellow gold and stainless steel Oyster case with a sapphire crystal, a signed crown, a glossy white Tritium dial with applied 'block' indices and printed 'Roman' indices and a matching handset, a fluted yellow gold bezel, and a matching two-tone Oyster bracelet with a signed blade clasp. Everything you need, and nothing you don't. Arguably the purest expression of a Rolex! These timepieces are incredibly versatile for everyday use, and can easily be dressed-up for formal occasions or dressed-down and worn as a sporty everyday companion.
