Delivery & Returns
Q: Is this Rolex Lady-Datejust a vintage watch? A: Yes. This watch dates to 1987 and is reference 69173, making it a genuine vintage Lady-Datejust with classic late-1980s proportions and styling.
Q: How does the 26mm case wear on the wrist? A: A 26mm Lady-Datejust wears as a refined, compact watch. It is smaller than current Lady-Datejust models, so it suits buyers who prefer an elegant vintage look rather than a larger modern fit.
Q: Will the bracelet fit my wrist? A: The bracelet is listed as fitting a wrist of up to 17 cm. If your wrist is smaller, it may be adjusted for a neater fit; if your wrist is larger than 17 cm, it is likely to feel too short unless additional links are added later.
Q: What materials and design details does this watch have? A: This piece has a stainless steel and yellow gold case, a two-tone Jubilee bracelet, a gold fluted bezel, a champagne dial with a date window, and a folding clasp closure.
Q: What is the condition of this watch? A: It is described as being in very good condition overall, with light traces of use. The case and bracelet show scratches, while the internal condition is listed as very good.
Q: Does this watch come with box, papers or other extras? A: No. This specific watch is listed with no accessories. Please refer to the product information for what is included with the sale.
Q: Is a vintage Lady-Datejust suitable for everyday wear? A: Yes, many buyers choose a Lady-Datejust as an everyday watch because of its timeless design and durable Rolex construction. As with any older watch, sensible day-to-day care is recommended to help preserve its condition.
Q: How should I care for a vintage two-tone Rolex? A: Wipe it gently with a soft cloth after wear and clean it carefully from time to time. Avoid harsh chemicals, perfume directly on the bracelet, and unnecessary knocks. For long-term upkeep, periodic professional servicing is recommended for vintage mechanical watches.
Q: Should I expect a vintage Jubilee bracelet to feel different from a modern bracelet? A: Often, yes. Vintage Jubilee bracelets can feel lighter and may show some age-related looseness compared with newer bracelets. That is normal for older watches, so it is worth reviewing the photos closely for the bracelet’s present condition.
