Description
Within the mid-2000s evolution of Rolex’s ladies’ Datejust collection, reference 178248 emerged as a defining example of yellow gold refinement paired with the sophisticated champagne Jubilee diamond dial configuration. This 31mm yellow gold Datejust represents the brand’s commitment to traditional proportions during an era when case sizes were steadily increasing across the industry. The champagne dial’s sunburst finish creates depth beneath ten applied diamond hour markers, while the choice of Oyster bracelet over the expected Jubilee creates an intriguing visual contrast that speaks to both sport and dress watch sensibilities. Arriving in unworn condition, this 178248 showcases the pristine factory finishing that makes early 21st-century Rolex manufacturing particularly coveted among collectors.
