The Rolex Datejust is one of the most iconic and beloved Rolex watches ever created. Since the Datejust was launched in 1945 it has remained a timeless classic and is instantly recognizable as an item of quality and functional design.   

Worn with ease in any setting, the Datejust is a classic for a reason. We love the early Rolex Datejust for its simplicity and understated sophistication and this example is no exception, featuring a flawless and rare lavender "pie-pan" dial. The Datejust can be worn just as easily with a suit as with jeans and a tee shirt. 

SPECS

CASE & BRACELET

The excellent case retains thick and symmetrical lugs that show gentle signs of use and previous polishing. The stainless steel engine-turned bezel is crisp and exhibits minimal signs of previous wear. The later Rolex 62510H Jubilee bracelet with 555 end pieces retains 17 links that show expected stretch and will fit up to a 7-inch wrist.

DIAL & HANDS

The original "pie pan" dial features a vibrant and beautiful lavender color with an exceptional vintage aesthetic, showing tasteful aging and speckling throughout, but no actual damage. The tritium lume plots have taken on a charming creamy yellow patina and exhibit no degradation when inspected under UV light. The hands are later tritium service units and remain in excellent condition. The metallic date wheel is original with "open" 6's and 9's.

ACCESSORIES 

None. The watch is keeping time, backed by a 1-year warranty on accurate timekeeping.
