Catalogue Essay The Datejust's story began in 1945, when Rolex produced reference 4467 to commemorate the manufacture's 40th anniversary. Featuring a coin-edge bezel and an aperture for the date, the model showcased a completely new bracelet design named the "Jubilee". While the Datejust has been reincarnated many times since its inception, Rolex has always retained the model's DNA with a reeded bezel, Jubilee bracelet, and clean, geometric forms. The present watch is the most classic iteration of the famous Datejust. Cased in stainless steel, this example also features an unmistakable white gold bezel that shimmers as it catches the light. Unpolished and featuring sharp factory finishes to the top of the lugs, the watch has survived in incredible condition since 1970. The "pie-pan" dial, too, is preserved extraordinarily well, as all the luminous plots are present and fully intact. Rarer still, the watch retains its original factory sticker on the case back. Another element of delight is the original guarantee and product literature, stating the watch was retailed at Wako in Ginza, Tokyo. Even the fitted presentation box is original, complete with the correct reference sticker on the outside packaging. Read More
