Description
Every watch lover should indulge themselves with a solid gold Rolex watch on a gold bracelet. Personally, I didn’t like gold watches for my first five years or so of collecting. Then, I spontaneously found myself lusting (yes lusting) for a Rolex Day Date. I didn’t know what had come over me. A shadow grew over my box full of steel watches, as gold fever took hold of me. I bought the Day Date on my next birthday and my collection hasn’t been the same since. Gold is so nice. Period.
This Datejust in solid 18k gold measures 35mm diameter by 12mm thick. You can buy a gold watch from hundreds of brands, but you won’t find a nicer execution than the Oyster case. It’s a gold sandwich, in a beautiful way. The fluted bezel. The notched screw down crown. The sapphire crystal. The massive gold screw down case back. Ah, and the solid gold Rolex Jubilee bracelet. So much wonderful gold… and functional too! Water resistant to 100 meters. Never take it off!
Dial is champagne with applied golden hour markers, golden baton hands and date display at 3 o’clock.
Movement is the automatic winding Rolex Caliber 3035 with 27 jewels, adjusted to heat, cold and in 5 positions, and is a C.O.S.C. Certified Chronometer.
Bracelet is solid 18k gold Rolex Jubilee with light to moderate stretch, very clean, in near mint condition.
Watch is in mint condition.
