I believe it's an 80's model Date Just with custom bezel. Other will chime in shortly.

Lots of weird things happened in the 80's and early 90's, but I would say that the bezel pictured is an aftermarket.
The main giveaway is the fact that any diamond bezels were only available on solid gold and platinum models. However, times have changed, and now "partial" diamond bezels are available on TT model DJ's too. John. |

yes, i still remembered back in 80's 90's, people especially from far east loves to modified their rolex, from bezel to dial.... i remember my uncle always modified his rolex everytime he visited honk kong (those are the great days that HK has all the best workmanship on jewells); untill the bezel and dial filled with diamonds......hardly see the time...
however, so the rolex i posted is genuine? |

I agree. It is an aftermarket bezel. The watch model itself is a DJ 16233.
