Whats your thoughts on this

Can anyone give me some info about this watch. Its model number is 16233.
I wanted to know what movement is inside (any pictures) and if you were selling (UK) how much would you ask.

Its a X serial (1993)
Thanks

You may be right, Padi, but I was under the impression that the 3135 is also used in the DJs. I could be wrong though.

The X serial is definately a 3135. I have a 1990 E serial 16233 that has a 3135 movement so later ones must have it as well.

Great watch, I think every Rolex collection should have 2 things, a DJ (steel or TT) and a Divers (steel or TT, but steel seems to be the preference) my personal preference is the SD of course
