Rolex Lady-Datejust 26 179174-WHTSFO White Index Fluted White Gold Stainless Steel Oyster - BRAND NEW

The Rolex Lady-Datejust is one of the most enduring icons in watchmaking history, representing the world's first self-winding waterproof wristwatch designed specifically for women when it was introduced in 1957. Across more than six decades, the Lady-Datejust has remained the definitive statement of refined horological elegance, combining Rolex's legendary precision engineering with a graceful, feminine silhouette. Reference 179174-WHTSFO represents the Lady-Datejust in one of its most classically appealing configurations, and it is offered here brand new at Bizak & Co.

The 26mm stainless steel case is the hallmark dimension of the Lady-Datejust lineage, sized to sit with perfect poise on the wrist without ever feeling oversized or understated. Stainless steel — specifically Rolex's own 904L Oystersteel — is prized for its exceptional resistance to corrosion and its ability to take a mirror-bright polish that retains its luster far longer than conventional steel. The Oyster case architecture seals the movement against the elements and gives the watch its characteristic broad, smooth lugs and iconic crown.

The dial of the 179174-WHTSFO is finished in white with applied index hour markers, a combination that projects clean legibility and timeless sophistication in equal measure. White dials have long been favored on the Lady-Datejust for their versatility — equally at home in boardroom, ballroom, or everyday settings — and the applied indexes catch the light with subtle brilliance. The date aperture at three o'clock, framed by Rolex's magnifying Cyclops lens on the crystal, anchors the dial's composition with practical elegance.

Crowning the case is a white gold fluted bezel, the detail that elevates this reference above the standard steel configuration. The fluted bezel was originally conceived by Rolex as a functional means of sealing the case, but it evolved into one of the brand's most recognizable design signatures. Rendered in 18 ct white gold, the fluted bezel on the 179174-WHTSFO introduces a precious-metal accent that catches light from every angle, bridging the gap between sporty Oyster construction and haute joaillerie refinement. The stainless steel Oyster bracelet completes the look with its three-piece link construction, ergonomic comfort, and robust security clasp.

Powering the Lady-Datejust is a Rolex automatic movement, a self-winding mechanical caliber manufactured and certified in-house at Rolex's Geneva manufacture. Rolex movements are chronometer-certified by the Official Swiss Chronometer Testing Institute (COSC) and subsequently subjected to Rolex's own even more stringent precision standards before leaving the manufacture. This commitment to movement quality means that every new Lady-Datejust is delivered as a precision instrument as much as a luxury accessory.
