I have a Rolex with a green and gold sticker on the back with the number 16014 (which I've noticed is the part number for DateJusts now). It has a fluted bezel, a champagne dial and 8 gold diamonds on the face. I took the band off (which is a President's style 2-tone gold/stainless) and there is no serial number visible. I was wondering if anyone knows when this watch may have been made. It says "Oyster Perpetual" and "Day Date" on the dial and it also says Superlative Chronometer on the dial. I'm thinking it may have been made in the 1970s. If anyone can help I'd appreciate it. Thanks.

Thanks for responding to my post. I will take some pix and post them in a couple of days. I live in a very rural area but I can use the Internet at the school where I teach (that's why I have such a delay in responding).

Your description doesn't sound hopeful... The President bracelets do not come in bi-metal/two tone, so perhaps it is something else, however, a Day Date is a "President", so there is a puzzle here..

No case numbers is a red flag, as is the gold and green Datejust sticker on a Day Date watch.
