The watch is handsome looking. It is probably close to 40 years old.

It was the next model after the 1603 non quickset. It probably had several dial options. Searching on the web you can find similar looking versions but from pictures not always easy to confirm. The image below is similar but I am not an expert in this mod

Rolex 16014

Thanks! Rolex 16014 is unique as it’s a transitional model for Datejust. It has a new movement allowing Quick set for Date but still it still retained the old plastic Crystal from the Rolex Datejust 1601, 1600, 1603 models.
