This Rolex Date, reference 69173, is a 26mm case in Steel and Yellow Gold used condition, featuring a Champagne stick dial, a Fluted YG bezel, a Jubilee bracelet, dated circa 1984. It comes with its original papers. Priced dealer-direct and shipped fully insured.
Two sizes define this line: 34mm for the standard Date and 26mm for ladies' pieces such as ref. 6917. Pre-1977 references like the 1503 and 15053 lack quickset; the 15203 and 15505 added it. Pay in steel and you're at entry Oyster Perpetual pricing. Step into solid gold like the 15505 and you approach $9,936, still below Datejust gold market levels. Pick clean, unpolished examples.

Benchmark is the right word here. Since Hans Wilsdorf launched it in 1905, Rolex has defined what a mechanical watch should be, with firsts in waterproofing, self-winding, and Date displays that gave it lasting credibility. Brand recognition is near-universal and the steel sports lineup holds value like few assets. Submariner, GMT-Master II, and Daytona routinely clear retail secondhand, so a wire payment and dealer-direct number put you ahead before the box even ships. Browse all Rolex ›
