About this watch

Band: Jubilee Clasp: Folding Glass: Sapphire crystal Water Resistant: 100m First introduced in 1945 to celebrate 40 years of Rolex, the Datejust was the world’s first watch to feature a date window with the ability to automatically change at midnight. Thus, the wearer would always be able to know the date and time at a glance. With the addition of 100m water resistance, it was, and still is, considered a very practical and versatile everyday watch. Our fine example here is reference 69173G in stainless steel and yellow gold. It features an uncommon matte Champagne dial (as opposed to the sunburst finish), with applied roman numeral hour markers and a date window at 3 o’clock. It has a 26mm case with sapphire crystal and a screw-down crown. The steel and gold Jubilee bracelet features a folded steel clasp. This timepiece is powered by the automatic calibre 2135 which is a COSC certified chronometer movement with approximately 48 hours power reserve. Circa 1991. This watch is in good condition and backed by our 24-month Vintage Watch Co warranty.
