The Rolex Datejust 79173 is a timeless symbol of elegance and versatility, perfectly sized for smaller wrists while offering all the iconic elements that make the Datejust a cornerstone of Rolex's legacy. With its refined 26mm case, two-tone steel and 18k yellow gold construction, and unmistakable fluted bezel, this model delivers classic luxury in a compact form. The standout champagne jubilee dial, adorned with diamond hour markers and the signature "ROLEX" pattern, adds a layer of visual intrigue and sparkle, making it a perfect everyday piece with a touch of glamour.
The Rolex Datejust 79173 features a 26mm stainless steel Oyster case topped with an 18k yellow gold fluted bezel — an instantly recognisable Rolex hallmark. This example showcases a champagne "Jubilee" dial, elegantly patterned with repeating "ROLEX" motifs and set with diamond hour markers for a luxurious yet tasteful look. The gold-tone hands and applied markers enhance legibility and complement the dial's warm tone.
At 3 o'clock, the classic date display is magnified by the Cyclops lens, set beneath a scratch-resistant sapphire crystal. The automatic Rolex Calibre 2235 powers the watch, offering excellent precision and a 48-hour power reserve. This movement is a certified Swiss chronometer, ensuring the highest standards of accuracy and reliability.
Paired with a two-tone Jubilee bracelet in stainless steel and 18k yellow gold, the 79173 wears comfortably and elegantly. The five-piece link design adds fluidity and a dressy flair, while the folding clasp offers a secure fit for daily wear.
Water-resistant to 100 metres thanks to its screw-down crown and Oyster case, the 79173 is built to handle life's daily activities without compromising its refined character.
