The Rolex Lady-Datejust (ref. 279173-0013) marries classic Rolex elegance with subtle modern refinement, presenting the iconic two-tone Rolesor aesthetic in a compact 28mm format. Its standout feature is a mother-of-pearl dial, providing a natural iridescence that contrasts beautifully with yellow-gold Roman numerals and hands.

Crafted from a combination of Oystersteel and 18ct yellow gold, the case is fitted with a fluted bezel – a defining design hallmark of the Datejust line. Inside, Rolex’s automatic calibre 2236 boasts a Syloxi hairspring, 55-hour power reserve, and COSC-certified precision. Though refined in appearance, the watch maintains solid wearability with a water resistance of 100 m and is completed by the comfort-focused Jubilee bracelet, equipped with the folding Crownclasp.

The Lady-Datejust 28 in this Rolesor configuration continues a lineage that began in 1957, offering enduring Rolex design in a slightly larger format introduced in 2015. Balancing tradition and innovation, ref. 279173-0013 remains a versatile choice for collectors seeking understated luxury and mechanical reliability in equal measure.
