Classic, luxurious, and beautifully preserved, this Rolex Lady-Datejust Ref. 69178 is a superb 26mm example dating to 1987, crafted throughout in solid 18ct yellow gold.

One of Rolex’s most enduring ladies’ designs, the Lady-Datejust combines the elegance of a traditional gold dress watch with the reliability and everyday practicality of Rolex’s automatic Oyster construction. The 26mm case gives the piece its classic proportions, while the fluted gold bezel and matching bracelet create the unmistakable appearance associated with the model.

Powered by an automatic Rolex movement, the watch features the signature date display beneath the Cyclops magnification lens and remains a highly wearable example of vintage Rolex design.

This piece is particularly appealing due to its accompanying original documentation and accessories. It is supplied with its Rolex presentation box, Certificate of Guarantee dated 1987, manuals, swing tag, 1986–87 Rolex calendar, red leather card holder and original glass which has just been replaced. The watch has also passed a recent pressure test for additional reassurance.
