Rolex Datejust Lady ref.6827

The Golden Mean: Rolex Datejust Lady from 1980.

The year is 1980, and the watch world is introduced to a new definition of elegance: the Rolex Datejust reference 6827. This watch is a rare and beautiful example of a vintage midsize or junior model, striking the perfect balance between presence and refinement.

Crafted entirely in opulent 18-karat yellow gold, the 6827 exudes warmth and undeniable luxury. Traditional, smaller women’s watches made way for this 31mm case, a diameter that was once considered midsize, but now perfectly suits the modern, confident woman’s desire for a slightly larger, yet still extremely feminine, watch. This is a watch that carries the hallmarks of the Datejust family with the grace of a classic piece of jewelry:
The golden luster: The 18k yellow gold case and bezel make this a timeless and elegant piece, currently presented on a stylish leather strap that beautifully accentuates the gold radiance.
Cyclops lens: Naturally, the signature cyclops magnifying lens is present at the 3 o’clock position, displaying the date clearly and 2.5 times magnified.

Behind the gold case ticks the automatic movement caliber 2030. This reliable, mechanical heart ensures that the watch is not only a piece of jewelry, but also a functional and precise instrument.
The Rolex Datejust 6827 is a watch that marks the transition from traditional to modern women’s watchmaking. It is a symbol of luxury that has stood the test of time and awaits a new owner who appreciates the value of 18k gold, excellent craftsmanship, and the iconic Rolex history on their wrist.

The Rolex Datejust is one of the most iconic watch designs ever made. We try not to use the term “iconic” too liberally, but it is surely justified here. Launched back in 1945 as the Ref. 4467, the design has been only marginally updated every now and then. And it has looked fresh and current ever since.

When it comes to vintage, two generations of Datejust are particularly popular; the Ref. 16xx and the later five-digit references. The 16xx models were made from the fifties until  roughly 1978 and feature a beautifully dimensional pie-pan dial. Many of these came on folded jubilee bracelets and they did not yet feature a quickset date.

When the reference was updated to five digits around 1978, the pie-pan dial was replaced by a flat dial. The caliber was updated to now feature a quickset date. A decade later, in 1988, a new update saw the introduction of a sapphire crystal. For us, this is where vintage Datejust becomes modern Datejust.

Countless variations can be found. Different bezels, bracelets, dial colors, sizes and materials. The Datejust is one of the most beloved and versatile watches around. If you are looking for a one-watch-collection, that works equally well with shorts as it does with a three-piece suit, the Datejust is probably a pretty safe bet!
