-Description
Ref. 16233 is a vintage model that was introduced around 1988 and produced until 2005.
It is a so-called 5-digit reference and is sometimes referred to as neo-vintage. This watch was manufactured in 1993.
It has a combination design of stainless steel (SS) and yellow gold (YG), and the beautifully cut fluted bezel gives it a luxurious look.
The 36mm case is neither too small nor too large, making it suitable for daily use.
The dial is a very rare "stellar boiler gauge" dial.
Most boiler gauges are white or cream-colored, so blue is an even rarer variation.
At first glance it looks black, but if you shine the light on it and change the angle, you can see that it is blue.
Combined with the gold Arabic numeral indexes, it makes the uniqueness stand out.
Both the dial and hands are tritium luminescent and are in slightly aged condition.
The movement is a self-winding Cal. 3135.
Almost 30 years after its introduction, it continues to be regarded as one of the best movements in the watch industry.
It is a movement with a very high degree of perfection in that it can maintain its accuracy permanently with regular maintenance, and it is also easy to maintain.
The bracelet is a jubilee bracelet 62510H.
The bracelet is 62510H, which is a dressy bracelet for the Datejust.
It comes with box and paper.
The mechanism has been adjusted only and is running at about +5 seconds per day. (We can overhaul it separately if you wish.)
The case and bracelet have been polished.

In order to achieve this, the presence of a skilled repair craftsman is essential.
How well the work is done depends largely on the thoughts of the craftsman.
The watchmakers who Arbitro asks are craftsmen who do not cut corners in such areas, so we ask them to carry out the repair work with peace of mind.
About Complete Service
Complete service, sometime called overhaul is the work of disassembling a mechanical product down to its individual parts, cleaning and reassembling it to bring it closer to its new state of performance.
Roughly speaking, the overhaul procedure is as follows.
1. Separate into case and movement
2. Disassemble the movement
3. Inspection and pre-cleaning of wear condition of each part
4. Wash parts with a special machine
5. Lubrication and assembly
6. Waterproof test
7. Final adjustment and running test.
Some movements are made up of hundreds of parts, but it is a very meticulous process of disassembling them one by one, inspecting them all, cleaning them, and reassembling them.
If you don't overhaul, the oil will deteriorate just like a car, and the risk of wear and damage to parts increases, causing a decrease in accuracy and, in severe cases, not working.
There is also the reason that it will be very expensive to replace parts after they are found to be damaged, so we recommend overhauling once every 2-3 years for economical and long-term use.
About Polishing
Vintage watches have been used for decades, and even the stainless steel used in many watches has rounded corners that were originally sharp, and has many small scratches even though the mirror finish should be beautiful. state.
At Arbitro, some watches are sold with a new finish, based on the idea that you can purchase them in beautiful condition and use them for a long time.
In particular, gold-cased dress watches are finished to bring out the best of the precious metal case.
The watches sold by us that have been given a new finish are shot in very high definition, so you can see that the edges stand out and the light is reflected by the mirror finish.
Also, depending on the case or bracelet, there are cases where multiple finishes such as mirror finish and hairline finish are mixed, but there are not many craftsmen who can distinguish between them and finish them at a high level.
In addition, the “thinness of the case” is also a part that is greatly influenced by the skill of the craftsman.
A watch that has become thinner and has thinner lugs is far from its original design, and the appearance becomes unbalanced.
It is a very precise work that brings the case closer to the original finish by eliminating scratches and dents while reducing the thickness of the case to the utmost limit.
Of course, there are cases where it is better to use the watch as it is, in order to emphasize the history of the watch and its original condition.
We look at each watch and judge whether it is best to finish it before selling it.
