The Rolex Datejust made its debut in 1945 and holds the distinction of being the world's first self-winding wristwatch with a date function. Encased in Rolex's iconic Oyster case, the Datejust not only offered a touch of luxury but also boasted robustness and waterproof capabilities. Over the years, the model has remained one of Rolex's flagship timepieces, showcasing a variety of materials and dial options.
Offered in "new-old-stock" condition, the present Rolex Datejust features a classic two-tone stainless steel and yellow gold 36mm case, combining the durability of stainless steel with the elegance of yellow gold. The watch is adorned with a champagne-hued dial, complemented by yellow gold hands that match the case. To add further allure, the dial is embellished with 10 brilliantly-cut diamonds, enhancing the overall appeal of this iconic timepiece.

Swiss | 1905Founded in 1905 England by Hans Wilsdorf and Alfred Davis as Wilsdorf & Davis, it soon became known as the Rolex Watch Company in 1915, moving its headquarters to Geneva in 1919. Like no other company, the success of the wristwatch can be attributed to many of Rolex's innovations that made them one of the most respected and well-known of all luxury brands. These innovations include their famous "Oyster" case — the world's first water resistant and dustproof watch case, invented in 1926 — and their "Perpetual" — the first reliable self-winding movement for wristwatches launched in 1933. They would form the foundation for Rolex's Datejust and Day-Date, respectively introduced in 1945 and 1956, but also importantly for their sports watches, such as the Explorer, Submariner and GMT-Master launched in the mid-1950s.One of its most famous models is the Cosmograph Daytona. Launched in 1963, these chronographs are without any doubt amongst the most iconic and coveted of all collectible wristwatches. Other key collectible models include their most complicated vintage watches, including references 8171 and 6062 with triple calendar and moon phase, "Jean Claude Killy" triple date chronograph models and the Submariner, including early "big-crown" models and military-issued variants.
