Details
The Definitive Everyday Classic
The Lady Datejust is a foundational piece in the Rolex catalog, establishing the standard for what a woman's luxury watch should be. It combines the brand's core technical innovations, like the automatically changing date and waterproof case, into a refined and enduring design. The two-tone combination of stainless steel and yellow gold is perhaps the most recognizable configuration, offering a balance of utility and style that has remained relevant for decades.
A Timeless And Versatile Combination
This 1989 example features the quintessential champagne sunburst dial, a configuration that has defined the Datejust since its earliest days. Paired with the 18K yellow gold fluted bezel and Jubilee bracelet, it creates a look that is both traditional and confident. The 26mm case size is classic and proportionate, making it an easy and comfortable choice for daily wear in any setting, from casual to formal.
A Well Kept Example From The Period
The overall condition of this watch is very good. The case appears unpolished and is in very good condition, as is the dial. The crystal is excellent. The Jubilee bracelet has some very light sag, which is entirely consistent with a watch from this era. The lume on the dial and hands appears to have been redone at some point in its history. As with every watch we offer, this piece has been verified as mechanically sound and is ready to wear.
The Right Watch For Any Occasion
This is the right choice for someone who wants one great watch that works for everything. It carries the weight and recognition of the Rolex name in a package that is understated and elegant. The combination of steel and gold makes it versatile enough to pair with any jewelry, and its automatic movement provides modern reliability. It is a benchmark design that never feels out of place.
