About the Turn-O-Graph 16253
The Rolex Turn-O-Graph 16253 is a reference in the Rolex Datejust collection. From our catalog: a 36 mm case in Steel and gold. The specifications below list every fact we have sourced for this reference; anything we could not source is marked as not known.
What the sales say
Behind the headline sit 68 completed sales, 66 eBay sales and 2 auction results, gathered from November 2023 through October 2026. The peak month for transactions was December 2025 (5). Auction results here come from Antiquorum, Dr. Crott (Auktionen Dr. H. Crott) and Bukowskis. It carries a moderate-confidence label: the range is a sound guide, but a single sale can still land outside it. The last recorded result is 16 days old, recent enough to anchor the figure. Recent sales are spread widely (Volatile, about 21% apart), so one result says little about the next. The published range reaches about 35% below and 36% above the worth-about figure. With steady but not heavy trading, the estimate gives a sale half its weight after 180 days.
On a like-for-like annual view the median climbed 21.1%, comparing 37 recent sales with 31 earlier ones. Its first recorded sale dates from November 2023, so a decade-scale view will have to wait.
Without box and papers, the same 16253 is worth about 13% less on the ratio we measured for its collection (from 131 watch-only sales). Of the 94 sales listed, 4 came as a full set, 0 as the watch alone and 10 with part of the set; 1 were described as unworn. Unworn full sets sell about 5% above worn ones across our data, so an unworn example sits above the headline. Listed sales ran from about 50% below the worth-about figure (October 16, 2024, on eBay, set not stated) to about 84% above the worth-about figure (December 12, 2025, at Antiquorum, unworn, partial set), which is the spread a seller should expect.
