The history of the House of Rolex is one of pioneering innovation. Since its founding in the early 20th century, Rolex has transformed the world of watchmaking, with milestones such as the invention of the Oyster case – the world’s first waterproof wristwatch case. The Datejust line, introduced in 1945, was a revolution in itself, being the first self-winding (automatic) chronometer wristwatch to display the date in a window on the dial.

What makes the date readability on this specific model – the Rolex Datejust – so unique is the famous Cyclops lens. This small, curved window is crafted from sapphire crystal and sits atop the watch glass, directly above the date aperture at the three o’clock position. Rolex introduced the Cyclops lens in 1953, and it quickly became an iconic feature of the brand. The ingenious design acts as a magnifying glass, enlarging the date display by 2.5 times. This ensures the date is perfectly legible at a glance, regardless of the lighting conditions. The Cyclops lens is not only a functional addition but also an essential aesthetic element that makes the Datejust instantly recognizable as a Rolex classic. This specific 1978 reference 6827 naturally features this unmistakable detail, which completes the watch’s functionality and visual appeal. With the Datejust, Rolex created a timeless classic that immediately became a symbol of prestige and technical excellence, a status that the model, such as this stunning 6827, maintains to this day.
