Rolex Lady-Datejust 26 179173-WHTSJ White Index Fluted Yellow Gold Stainless Steel Jubilee - BRAND NEW

The Rolex Lady-Datejust is arguably the most recognizable women's luxury watch in the world, a lineage that stretches back to 1957 when Rolex introduced a scaled version of the iconic Datejust expressly for women. Over the decades it has remained the benchmark against which all other women's dress watches are measured, prized for its blend of horological precision, precious materials, and effortlessly timeless design. Reference 179173-WHTSJ represents the 26mm generation of this storied line, uniting the classic proportions that made the Lady-Datejust famous with a sophisticated two-tone material palette.

The 26mm stainless steel case of the 179173-WHTSJ is a study in Rolex's legendary finishing craft. The case diameter of 26mm is the traditional size associated with the Lady-Datejust and sits with understated elegance on the wrist, never overpowering the hand yet carrying an unmistakable presence. The crown of the case is protected by Rolex's signature Twinlock winding crown, which contributes to the watch's robust sealed construction.

The white dial fitted to reference 179173-WHTSJ offers a clean, luminous backdrop that ensures exceptional legibility at a glance. Index hour markers are applied directly to the dial surface, lending a dressy, minimalist look that transitions seamlessly from boardroom to evening occasion. The date aperture, framed by a signature Cyclops lens on the crystal that magnifies the date 2.5 times, is the hallmark complication of every Datejust and keeps the 179173-WHTSJ firmly in the family tradition.

The yellow gold fluted bezel is among the most celebrated design elements in watchmaking. Introduced by Rolex in the early Datejust era, the fluted bezel began as a functional device for securing the case back before evolving into a purely aesthetic signature. On the 179173-WHTSJ it frames the white dial in warm yellow gold, creating a luminous contrast that catches the light from every angle. Complementing the bezel, the Jubilee bracelet—itself a Rolex invention debuted alongside the original Datejust in 1945—is rendered here in a two-tone configuration of yellow gold and stainless steel, its five-piece link construction draping the wrist with a suppleness that is immediately apparent.

Powering the Lady-Datejust 26 is a Swiss automatic movement, reflecting Rolex's unwavering commitment to in-house mechanical excellence. The movement is housed entirely within the sealed stainless steel case, protected by Rolex's robust case construction that has made the brand synonymous with reliability. Whether worn daily or reserved for special occasions, the 179173-WHTSJ is engineered to perform with the consistency Rolex collectors worldwide have come to expect.
