About this watch

Reference 279161 marks a pivotal evolution in the Lady-Datejust lineage, introducing the coveted chocolate index dial in the refined 28mm case size that bridges the gap between vintage proportions and contemporary wrist presence. This particular configuration pairs the warmth of Everose gold with Oystersteel in Rolex's signature Rolesor construction, creating a two-tone composition that enhances the rich chocolate dial's depth and legibility. The 28mm case diameter represents Rolex's response to collectors seeking a more substantial presence than the traditional 26mm Ladies' models, while maintaining the elegant proportions that define the Datejust aesthetic. Delivered in unworn condition, this Rolex Datejust 279161 exemplifies the manufacturer's commitment to timeless design executed in precious materials.
