Rolex 116264 Datejust Turn-O-Graph "Thunderbird" SS Black Dial

The Rolex 116264 Turn-O-Graph represents a captivating intersection of form and function in the world of midsize sports-luxury watches. Distinguished by its blend of stainless steel and a fluted white gold bezel, this reference speaks to those with a nuanced appreciation for Rolex innovation—especially as the Turn-O-Graph predates the Submariner as the brand's earliest rotating bezel model. The crisp black dial offers sharp legibility, while the case is sized for versatile, elegant presence on the wrist. Its automatic movement ensures reliability, aligning with the standards expected of Rolex's Datejust lineage. The rotating bezel imparts useful timing functionality without compromising the piece's understated sophistication. Revered by collectors for its relatively brief production run, the 116264 stands as a subtle yet significant nod to the evolution of the modern tool watch.
