Rolex's Datejust collection needs little introduction, and this reference 179173 carries forward the line's enduring character in a 26mm round case. The two-tone construction pairs yellow gold and steel throughout, most notably on the fixed yellow gold bezel and the yellow gold hands that stand out clearly against the iridescent mother of pearl dial. Roman numerals reinforce the traditional look, lending the piece a sense of formality that suits a wide range of occasions.
Practical details include a scratch-resistant sapphire crystal, a screw-down crown, and a fold-clasp bracelet. The automatic movement powers the date, hour, minute, and second displays — the full suite of functions that has defined the Datejust since its debut. Swiss Made designation speaks to the watch's origins, and the production falls within the 2010–2019 period.
This example comes with its original Rolex box; original papers are not included. The bracelet band and fold clasp complete the package, making this a wearable and recognizable ladies' luxury watch from one of the most storied names in Swiss horology.
