Rolex Lady-Datejust 31 31 mm 278241SSJ Steel/Rose Gold Slate

The Rolex Lady-Datejust is one of the most storied watches in horological history, and the 31mm case size occupies a sweet spot that suits a wide range of wrists while offering a presence notably bolder than the classic 28mm Lady-Datejust. Reference 278241SSJ represents the current generation of this iconic line, blending centuries-old Swiss watchmaking craft with a design language that has remained effortlessly modern since the Datejust's introduction in 1945.

The 31mm Oyster case of the 278241SSJ is crafted in a combination of Oystersteel—Rolex's proprietary corrosion-resistant steel alloy from the 904L family—and 18k Everose Gold, Rolex's exclusive rose-gold alloy engineered to resist fading over decades of wear. The smooth domed bezel is rendered in Everose Gold, giving the watch a crown-like quality that frames the dial with warmth and precision. The Oyster case construction provides a water resistance of 100 meters (330 feet), making this watch as practical as it is beautiful.

The slate dial of reference 278241SSJ is a study in understated luxury. Slate is a nuanced, deeply sophisticated color that reads as a rich dark grey with cool undertones, offering far more visual depth than a straightforward black or silver dial. Against this backdrop, index hour markers catch the light with quiet brilliance, and the iconic Datejust date window at three o'clock—protected by a Cyclops lens that magnifies the date 2.5×—reads with effortless clarity.

The Jubilee bracelet is one of Rolex's most celebrated link designs, originally created specifically for the Datejust at its 1945 launch. Its five-piece center-link construction gives it a supple, almost jewelry-like drape on the wrist, and combined with the two-tone Oystersteel and Everose Gold palette of the 278241SSJ, it elevates the overall package into something that sits comfortably alongside fine jewelry. The Jubilee's folding Crownclasp ensures a secure fit throughout the day. Powering the watch is an automatic movement, delivering the reliability and convenience that Rolex's self-winding calibers are universally recognized for.
