About this watch
Champagne Roman numerals against yellow gold create an unmistakably refined presence in this Rolex Datejust 179178, where the warm dial tone harmonizes perfectly with the 26mm solid gold case construction. The fluted bezel catches light with mathematical precision, its hand-finished ridges complementing the dial's subtle sunburst effect that shifts from pale gold to deeper amber depending on viewing angle. This reference 179178 represents the pinnacle of the Lady-Datejust collection, pairing the iconic President bracelet's three-piece links with Rolex's most traditional dial layout. The unworn condition preserves every manufacturing detail, from the crisp Roman numeral printing to the mirror-polished case flanks.
