Lady-Datejust 26 Champagne Dial Fluted Bezel 18K Yellow Gold Steel Jubilee 179173CRJ

The Rolex Lady-Datejust 26 Ref. 179173 in the CRJ configuration is a quintessential Rolex model from the previous 26 mm generation, embodying the brand’s iconic combination of elegance and luxury. This model is built using the traditional two-tone blend known as Yellow Rolesor (the harmonious fusion of Oystersteel and 18K Yellow Gold). The watch is instantly recognizable and visually dynamic thanks to its dazzling 18K Yellow Gold Fluted Bezel, a signature Rolex design element that creates continuous light reflections and adds significant texture.

The dial showcases the highly traditional and warm Champagne finish . This rich, beautiful golden tone provides a luxurious and perfectly complementary backdrop to the yellow gold components of the case and bezel. The dial is marked by clean Applied Index Hour Markers (batons), which are meticulously set in 18K Yellow Gold. This minimalist marker set ensures superb legibility and maintains a classic, balanced proportion against the dial’s opulent finish.
