For sale is a vintage Swiss Made Rolex Oyster Perpetual Datejust Ladies' watch with reference number 69173, dating back to the year 1996 based on its serial number. It features a 26mm two-tone stainless steel case with fluted 18k solid yellow gold bezel. The dial on this particular example comes in a gold sunburst finish, with ten factory set diamond indices. Stick shaped hands indicate the time, and a calendar window can be seen at the 3 o'clock position through the signature Rolex lens bubble or "cyclop". Inside the watch sits a Rolex 2135 movement, a highly regarded automatic calibre used in many Rolex ladies' watches. The screw-down crown is original, made from solid 18k yellow gold and decorated with the Rolex crown logo. Fitted to the watch comes the original two tone Jubilee bracelet with 18k yellow gold center links, 468B end links and 62523 clasp.
The example sold here has been worn throughout its life, but is still in decent overall condition considering its age. The dial is looking really clean, with crisp text and undamaged finish. You will find normal wear marks on both the case and bracelet. Said case has been cleaned entirely, but left unpolished to maintain its sharp edges, curves and original finish. The sapphire crystal is original, with a few light blemishes that are only apparent when looking for them by closely studying the watch. The Jubilee bracelet has a very reasonable amount of flex, and is still in good condition as well. Please study the pictures in this listing well: they show the watch in the condition that it is in, with no digital enhancements to make it look better than it is. We are sure that you like honesty, and so do we. Functionally, the watch comes without service history but has been thoroughly checked and is working within Chronometer specification.
Please note that with its original Jubilee bracelet, the watch will accommodate wrists with a circumference of up to approximately 16.5cm. Decreasing the size is easily done by removing some bracelet links or adjusting the clasp. In order to extend the bracelet size past the current maximum of 16.5cm, spare links will have to be sourced online or at a dealership. Alternatively, any generic 13mm bracelet or leather strap can be fitted in order to make the watch suit any wrist size.
