Case
Excellent 18K case that seems to be unpolished and is only showing light wear from age. The lugs remain strong and show beautiful factory finishing. The bezel is equally mint and does not show any major wear. Case numbers are crisp and fully intact.
The year 1945 saw the birth of the Datejust, the first self‑winding wrist chronometer to indicate the date in a window on the dial. A watch of great distinction, the Datejust was equipped with a Jubilee bracelet created specially for it and a fluted bezel, making it immediately recognisable as a Rolex. It is the pillar of the Oyster collection. Initially for men, it became available in various models for women in the course of the following decade.
