The Rolex Datejust is one of the most significant models in the history of watchmaking. First introduced in 1945, it was the first self-winding wristwatch to display the date on the dial. The Datejust quickly became a symbol of prestige and luxury, and has been worn by some of the world's most influential figures, including US President Eisenhower and Martin Luther King Jr. Over the years, Rolex has continued to refine the design of the Datejust, adding new features and innovations while staying true to its classic look and feel. Today, the Datejust remains one of the most popular and recognizable watches in the world, a testament to its timeless design and enduring appeal.

This five digit reference example, circa '86 benefits from the addition of a quickset date feature and the 18k "fluted bezel," pairing nicely with its jubilee bracelet. The "champagne" dial makes this variation one of the most classic iterations, often associated with this model. This piece has remained in excellent vintage condition with a mint dial/hands and thick case with evenly proportioned lugs. The bracelet displays light stretch and will fit and approximate 7.5 inch wrist.
