I’ve actually found success selling watches in WB Commerce Corner before, so thought I’d x-post this here…
Looking for $5,100 w/shipping included. Or for grins, I’d consider a trade for Pappy + cash as needed
This is an excellent vintage Rolex with the very desirable, discontinued Tapestry dial (this is what drew me to the watch initially). DM with questions or for more pics
Description
This is a beautifully preserved Rolex Datejust 36 (ref. 16220) featuring the rare Silver Tapestry dial — a vertically patterned texture that shimmers subtly with light. Rolex no longer produces this dial, making it a collectible and quietly distinctive take on a timeless design.
The watch is an F-serial (circa 2003) example in stainless steel with an engine-turned bezel and Jubilee bracelet. It’s in excellent condition, running reliably, and ready to wear.
