Luxurious, elegant and particularly striking, this Rolex Lady-Datejust Ref. 179159 is a superb 2005 example crafted entirely from solid 18ct white gold and extensively factory-set with diamonds.
The classic 26mm Oyster case is framed by an original Rolex factory diamond-set bezel, with further factory diamonds set into the lugs and hour markers. Combined with the solid 18ct white gold construction, the result is a beautifully jewellery-led interpretation of one of Rolex’s most enduring ladies’ watches.
The watch is completed by its 18ct white gold President bracelet with concealed Crownclasp, giving the piece the refined, seamless appearance associated with Rolex’s precious-metal models.
At its heart is the automatic Rolex Calibre 2235, a chronometer-rated movement featuring a quickset date function. The dial is protected by a scratch-resistant sapphire crystal with Rolex’s characteristic Cyclops magnifier over the date at 3 o’clock.
Importantly, this example underwent a full service on 11 November 2026 and is accompanied by its Rolex service card, service history and Rolex service pouch. It has also recently passed a pressure test.
Supplied as a full set with its original accompanying presentation and documentation, this is an especially complete example of the diamond-set white gold Lady-Datejust.
