1990 Rolex Lady Datejust 69179 - 18K White Gold Silver Sunburst Roman Dial

Trade In
Details
A Classic Design In An Uncommon Metal
The Lady Datejust is a cornerstone of the Rolex catalog, but this reference 69179 represents a far more exclusive execution. While steel and two-tone versions are common, a full 18k white gold construction elevates the watch entirely. It retains the iconic design language, including the fluted bezel and classic bracelet, but renders it in a precious metal known for its understated presence. This is not the loudest watch in the room, but it is one of the most substantial.
Monochromatic And Cohesive
This 1990 example is a study in quiet confidence. The silver sunburst dial blends seamlessly with the white gold case and bracelet, creating a clean, monochromatic look that works as both a daily timepiece and a piece of fine jewelry. It wears with a classic elegance that has defined the model for decades. The weight of the solid gold gives it a satisfying feel on the wrist that distinguishes it immediately from its steel counterparts.
A Well Preserved Example
This example is in very good condition. The case and bracelet present well, and the clasp retains its original factory hallmarks. The original crown shows some light oxidation. As with every watch we offer, this piece has been verified as mechanically sound and is ready to wear.
Substance Over Statement
This watch is for the person who values classic design and precious materials without needing the overtness of yellow gold. It’s a choice that communicates an understanding of quality over simple recognition. The combination of the foundational Datejust design with a full white gold construction makes it a sophisticated and versatile piece that is both timeless and discreet.

What Our Clients Say About Us

Dan Young

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….
