1982 Rolex Ladies Datejust 6917 – Yellow Gold Tiffany & Co. Buckley Retailer Signature Dial
Hand picked by the Fifth Avenue legend
Rolex and Tiffany & Co. shared a storied partnership that produced some of the most collectible watches in the vintage market. This reference 6917 is an exceptional example because it features the iconic Buckley dial, defined by its printed Roman numerals, which is rarely seen with a double signature. It's clear that this design was picked by Tiffany Curation for a good reason. It represents a precise moment in mid-century Rolex production where brand identity and retailer prestige were perfectly aligned.
Preservation Of The Solid Gold Bracelet
The defining physical trait of this piece is the 18k yellow gold Presidential bracelet. While many of these smaller gold watches were separated from their original bands over the decades or had the bracelets scrapped, this example remains intact as a cohesive unit. The way the bracelet integrates with the gold case creates a seamless, jewelry-like appearance that Rolex perfected in the early 1980s. It's a configuration that carries a significant amount of visual weight and historical value because the head and the solid gold band have stayed together through the years.
Honest Condition And Verified Performance
This watch is in good condition and maintains an honest, unpolished aesthetic. The 18k yellow gold case and bracelet show wear consistent with their age, but the lines remain sharp and the gold has a warm, authentic tone. The champagne Buckley dial is clean and the Tiffany stamp is clearly legible above the six o'clock marker. The Presidential bracelet shows light sag, which is appropriate for a gold piece from 1982, yet it remains secure and fully functional. The automatic movement is running strong after passing our test bench.
A Rare Tiffany And Buckley Intersection
This piece works because it combines three distinct collector tiers: solid gold construction, a Tiffany signature, and the Buckley dial layout. It functions as a sophisticated daily watch that holds a deep level of nuance for those who look closely. It's a rare opportunity to own a preserved piece of retail history that is as wearable today as it was forty years ago.

What Our Clients Say About Us
I knew I was gonna like Danny, based on his name, but nothing could’ve prepared me for how great of an experience this was. He had the most beautiful 70s Seamaster Cosmic on his website and I was set to be married 2 days later - I arranged to buy it but before leaving we both realized it needed to be serviced. I panicked, because I was literally buying this for my wedding, and Danny being the legend he is, loaned me a nearly identical Seamaster to make sure I could get through the event Never have I had someone go so above and beyond for me, especially while purchasing one of the lesser priced items in their inventory. He serviced my watch and exchanged it with me after the wedding on a super fast turnaround timeline. I would sincerely recommend you visit this guy, you will not be disappointed Edit: adding a pic of the loaner (two tone) and the owner (crosshair)
Great service and shop. Danny and his team were incredibly accommodating, professional, and kind. Great selection of vintage watches. Their store is the hidden gem in the diamond district.
This was my first real luxury watch purchase, a Rolex 15200 Date 34mm, I own Tissots and a Laco, but those are entry level luxury watches. I found Danny’s Vintage Watches online, and had great feedback both on Google, Chrono24 and the Reddit watch community. So decided to give him a shot as buying online can be a crap shoot. Ordered Monday night, was at my doorstep Friday morning. Despite the watch being over 30 years old, serial number says it’s from 91, the watch looked new. Didn’t come with box or papers, and was shipped in a plastic sleeve wrapped in bubble wrap. Danny was always available to answer questions. I’ll be buying from Danny again for the next purchase…saw a couple of Speedmasters on his site I liked….
Can't recommend Danny's vintage watches enough!!! My first Omega ever and im in love have been wearing every day since I purchased it. Danny's shop is a must visit if you are in NYC looking for a watch!!!
