    Pre-Owned Rolex Datejust “Thunderbird” Turn-o-Graph ref 116261 (2005 – 2006) is a fascinating piece of Rolex history. The line was introduced to market in the early 1950s, just after the debut of the Datejust and before the conception of the Submariner and GMT Master. The Turn-o-Graph was the first timepiece produced by Rolex to offer a rotatable timing bezel. The ref. 116261 is a contemporary two-tone example of the line that presents the case and bracelet in Rolex’s patented Everose Rolesor, which pairs 904L-grade Oystersteel with 18 karat pink gold. Rose gold Rolex watches are in high demand, making this preowned example an excellent chance to add one to your collection at an attractive price. The ref. 116261 is the perfect balance between sport and dress and will quickly become your new go-to timepiece. Shop Rolex Datejust 36 Collection
