About this watch

The perpetual, self-winding caliber 2236 movement powers this Rolex Datejust 279161, delivering the precision that defines the collection's five-decade heritage while showcasing the warm contrast of Everose gold against steel Rolesor construction. Sized at 28mm, this Lady-Datejust bridges the gap between the discontinued 26mm and larger 31mm variants, creating a proportionally balanced presence on smaller wrists. The white mother-of-pearl diamond dial catches light through individually set brilliant-cut diamonds at each hour marker, creating depth and luminosity that shifts with wrist movement. Reference 279161 represents Rolex's commitment to the two-tone aesthetic, pairing the durability of Oystersteel with 18ct Everose gold that resists fading through the brand's proprietary pink gold alloy.
