The Rolex Datejust is one of the most enduring and recognisable watches in the Rolex collection, first introduced in 1945 and remaining a cornerstone of the brand ever since. Known for its timeless proportions, practical date function and effortless versatility, the Datejust has become a benchmark for everyday luxury.

This Rolex Datejust is a beautifully classic steel example, featuring a bright champagne/silver-tone dial, engine-turned steel bezel and iconic Rolex Jubilee bracelet. The overall presentation is crisp, clean and highly wearable, with the watch retaining excellent definition and a particularly tight bracelet considering its age.

The dial features applied baton hour markers, elegant Rolex hands with lume detailing to the ends, and a date aperture at 3 o’clock beneath the signature Cyclops lens. The engine-turned bezel gives the watch a more distinctive vintage Rolex character, adding subtle texture and light play while keeping the piece understated and refined.

Fitted to a stainless steel Jubilee bracelet, reference 62510, this Datejust offers the comfort and classic wrist presence for which the model is so well known. A strong example of a vintage Rolex Datejust, complete with presentation box, manuals, service guarantee card, certificate of authenticity and original swing tag.
