Rolex Datejust 26 18ct. Yellow Gold Diamond Dial (1995)

The Rolex Datejust has remained one of the maison's defining collections since its introduction in 1945, combining timeless design with the practicality of its signature date display. The Ref. 69178 embodies a particularly luxurious expression of the classic ladies' Datejust, crafted entirely from 18ct yellow gold.

This Rolex Datejust 26 Ref. 69178 features a 26mm 18ct yellow gold case with Rolex's signature fluted bezel. Its distinctive champagne Jubilee dial features the repeating "ROLEX" signature subtly woven across its surface, creating a decorative pattern that changes character with the light. Applied diamond hour markers add further distinction, while the date display beneath the Cyclops lens at 3 o'clock and President-style 18ct yellow gold bracelet complete its elegant aesthetic.

Powering the watch is the Rolex calibre 2135 automatic movement, offering an approximately 42-hour power reserve. Presented in very good condition. Offered with box and papers. Circa 1995. As with all vintage timepieces, we do not recommend wearing this watch in or around water, regardless of its original water resistance rating. Covered by our 24 month J. Farren Price warranty.
