Rolex Lady-Datejust 26 Ref. 69173

The Rolex Lady-Datejust 26 with reference 69173 from 1992 is the undisputed icon of the classic Women's watch and the epitome of timeless, feminine elegance. Since its introduction, the Lady-Datejust has embodied the luxurious standard for the modern, style-conscious woman. In the legendary bicolor version (Rolesor Yellow Gold) – the harmonious fusion of cool Steel and radiant 18-carat Yellow Gold – this model perfectly captures the glamorous aesthetic of the early 1990s. With its classic 26-mm case, it is a delicate, jewel-like masterpiece on the wrist that places enduring style above fleeting fashion trends.

• The iconic bicolor aesthetic (Rolesor Yellow Gold): The case and bracelet consist of a masterful combination of high-strength Steel and finest in-house 18-carat Yellow Gold. The warm glow of the Gold sets luxurious accents, while the Steel ensures uncompromising robustness for everyday wear.

• The legendary fluted Gold bezel: The unmistakable visual hallmark of this model is the distinctively fluted bezel made of solid 18-carat Yellow Gold. It spectacularly catches the incoming light and gives the watch its characteristic, noble radiance.

• The classic 26-mm case: With its delicate diameter of 26 mm, this Lady-Datejust flatters every female wrist. It is discreet enough to be worn as an elegant piece of jewelry, yet possesses the unmistakable presence of a genuine Rolex.

• Dial variants with timeless class: Whether in the champagne-colored classic look, pure White, or deep Blue – the dials of this era impress with applied indices or Roman numerals in Yellow Gold. To protect against tarnishing, the hands are also made entirely of Gold.

• Scratch-resistant Sapphire Crystal with Cyclops lens: By 1992, the durable Sapphire Crystal was already standard for this reference. At 3 o’clock, the world-famous Rolex Cyclops lens provides a two-and-a-half times magnification of the date, ensuring flawless readability.

• Reliable mechanical manufacture caliber 2135: Inside works the highly precise automatic movement caliber 2135. It is still considered by watchmakers as one of the most robust and reliable Women's watch movements ever made and features an official COSC chronometer certification as well as a power reserve of approximately 42 hours.

• Sovereign everyday protection: Thanks to the screw-down Twinlock winding crown and the hermetically screwed case back, the Lady-Datejust is absolutely dust- and waterproof up to a depth of 100 meters (10 ATM).

• The highly elegant Jubilee bracelet: This classic is worn on the iconic five-row Jubilee metal bracelet in Steel and Yellow Gold. The small, polished Gold links in the center nestle wonderfully softly against the skin and end in an elegant, concealed Crownclasp folding clasp.

• A coveted vintage classic (year 1992): A Rolex Lady-Datejust 69173 from 1992 represents the golden era of bicolor design. It is far more than a precise timepiece – it is a stylish heirloom that unites elegance, history, and enduring value stability.
