Delivery & Returns
Q: What size is this Rolex Lady-Datejust? A: This watch has a 26 mm case, which is the classic vintage Lady-Datejust size. It offers a refined, petite look on the wrist and is ideal if you prefer a smaller watch profile.
Q: Will this watch fit my wrist? A: The bracelet currently fits a wrist of 16.5 cm or smaller. If you need a different fit, adjustment may be possible depending on the available links and your watchmaker’s assessment.
Q: What materials and design details does this watch have? A: This 1995 Rolex Lady-Datejust reference 69173 is made in stainless steel and yellow gold. It features a two-tone Jubilee bracelet, a fluted bezel, a silver dial with Roman numeral hour markers, and a date window with a Cyclops lens.
Q: Is this considered a vintage Rolex? A: Yes. This watch dates to 1995, and the 26 mm Lady-Datejust is a classic older size that many collectors and vintage watch lovers appreciate for its elegant proportions.
Q: Is this watch automatic or battery-powered? A: Reference 69173 is generally associated with a self-winding automatic movement, so it is not a battery-powered quartz watch. It is designed to run through mechanical movement powered by wear and motion.
Q: Does this watch come with box, papers, or other extras? A: No. According to the product information, this watch comes with no accessories. If an item is not listed in the product information, it should not be assumed to be included.
Q: What condition is this watch in? A: The product information lists the overall condition as Good Condition, with very good external and internal condition. Please note there are scratches on the case and bracelet, which is consistent with age and prior wear.
Q: Can I wear this watch every day? A: Yes, many people choose a Lady-Datejust as an everyday watch because it is versatile and easy to dress up or down. As this is a vintage piece, we recommend wearing it with normal care and avoiding knocks, chemicals, and rough handling.
Q: Is it safe to wear this watch in water? A: Vintage watches should always be treated with extra care around water. Even though Rolex Oyster cases are known for water resistance, we recommend avoiding water exposure unless the watch has been recently pressure-tested by a qualified watchmaker.
Q: How should I care for a vintage two-tone Rolex Jubilee bracelet? A: Wipe the watch gently with a soft, dry cloth after wear and store it in a dry place away from direct heat and humidity. For deeper cleaning, polishing, or servicing, it is best to use a trusted specialist familiar with vintage Rolex watches.
