Rolex Lady-Datejust 26 Rolesor automatic 26 mm Full Set 2016

The story

This reference 179161 is the perfect incarnation of the Lady-Datejust, an emblematic model in the world of women's watches. Launched in the mid-2000s, this reference marks the arrival of a new generation of two-tone smooth-bezel watches from Rolex. It continues the heritage of the women's Datejust, inaugurated over 50 years ago, by offering a versatile and refined watch, ideal for women wishing to enter the Rolex world.

Reference 179161 is also notable for being one of the last 26 mm Lady-Datejust models, before Rolex definitively adopted the 28 mm diameter in the mid-2010s. This discreet yet elegant format is prized for its comfort and stylistic versatility, making this watch perfect for everyday wear as well as for special occasions.

The model

This Rolex Lady-Datejust is distinguished by its pink sunray dial, which subtly captures the light, creating delicate reflections that change according to the angle of illumination. This aesthetic choice lends the watch a resolutely feminine and sophisticated allure. The pink gold baton hour markers add a harmonious touch of brilliance to the smooth 18-carat Everose gold bezel, underlining the timeless elegance of this timepiece.

The 26 mm stainless steel Oyster case offers the legendary robustness typical of the collection. Featuring a screw-down crown and sapphire crystal with Cyclops magnifier, it guarantees perfect readability of the date at 3 o'clock and water resistance to 100 meters.

Its steel and Everose gold Oyster bracelet adds a touch of refinement while offering optimal comfort thanks to its secure Oysterclasp buckle. This robust yet elegant bracelet allows the watch to be worn with both formal and casual attire.

Renowned for its reliability and precision, this COSC Swiss Chronometer-certified caliber offers a power reserve of around 48 hours.
