ROLEX Oyster Perpetual Lady Datejust 18K Diamond Automatic Watch

This elegant and feminine Lady-Datejust watch by Rolex features a luxurious all-gold design, crafted entirely in 18 karat yellow gold, and with a gorgeous satin and polished finish. The wristwatch case has an original gold dial with original diamond index markers set in gold bezels and a custom .5ctw thirty-six round brilliant cut diamond bezel. The case is protected by an extremely hard, scratch-resistant, anti-glare, synthetic sapphire crystal with a cyclops magnifying lens at the 3 o'clock position over the date window. The bottom of the dial bears the inscription "Superlative Chronometer Officially Certified," a designation that is a guarantee of precision, durability, and reliability. It assures buyers that their Rolex watch has been tested to the highest standards and will deliver exceptional performance. The watch is powered by a Swiss automatic 29-jewel movement known for its accuracy, reliability and its quickset function.The model number 69178 was made in 1991. 

The watch features the premium Rolex Perpetual Rotor, a self-winding mechanism that utilizes the wearer's wrist movements to keep the watch powered—an innovation invented and patented by Rolex in 1931, and regarded as the most advanced self-winding mechanism in the world. The mechanism ensures that the watch remains continuously tensioned and operational, providing greater accuracy and a longer watch life compared to manually wound watches. When the watch is not being worn, the fully wound mainspring offers a power reserve, allowing the watch to continue running for approximately 48 hours.

Attached to the case is a custom, non-OEM 18 karat yellow gold Rolex President bracelet with a three-link design. The President design is a symbol of luxury and prestige with high-polish links and is affixed to the hidden crown clasp. The condition is excellent, there is very little sag and it is still strong. The bracelet can be made smaller by removing links, and in most cases, it can be made larger by purchasing additional links.

Included with the watch is the original green leather protective case, a larger outer box, and Rolex polishing cloths. The watch contains only OEM parts with the exception of the custom diamond bezel and President bracelet, and has been certified as authentic by Rolex's service center. The overall condition was graded as excellent. 

The watch has recently undergone an overhaul and refinish service, completed by Rolex's service center and paid for by the consignor of the watch. As a result, the buyer of the watch is entitled to a two-year warranty offered by Rolex's service center. The Overhaul & Refinish service entailed a complete hand disassembly of all exterior components and all systems of the movement, as well as the separation and ultrasonic cleaning of individual movement components. This was followed by the replacement of any worn parts and a complete refinish to factory specifications, concluding with post-service testing.

Also included with the watch is a Certificate of Authenticity supplied by Rolex's service center, as well as a secondary market resale valuation of $8,000, which was recently completed in April 2025. The appraisal states, "This watch, including its inner workings, has been inspected for authenticity, condition, and functionality. In our professional opinion, at the time of performing this appraisal, we have determined this watch, as well as all of its components, to be a genuine Rolex watch with non-OEM diamond bezel.
