Lady-Datejust 26 Meteorite Diamond Dial 18K Yellow Gold Steel Jubilee Bracelet 179173MTDJ

The Rolex Lady-Datejust 26 Ref. 179173 in the MTDJ configuration is an exceptional and highly exclusive timepiece from the previous 26 mm generation, celebrated for its use of a unique, natural material. This model is constructed using the iconic two-tone aesthetic, known as Yellow Rolesor (the harmonious fusion of Oystersteel and 18K Yellow Gold). The watch gains immediate recognition and a brilliant, sparkling effect from its iconic 18K Yellow Gold Fluted Bezel, a signature Rolex element renowned for its geometric texture and exceptional light reflection.

The absolute centerpiece of this timepiece is the extremely rare Meteorite Diamond Dial . This dial is crafted from a slice of Gibeon meteorite, a material that traveled through space before landing on Earth. Its surface reveals the stunning, naturally occurring Widmanstätten patterns—intricate metallic crystalline structures unique to extraterrestrial iron. Adorning this mesmerizing, naturally grey-toned surface are sparkling Diamond Hour Markers (typically 10 brilliant-cut stones), which are elegantly set in 18K Yellow Gold, ensuring superb clarity and maximum brilliance against the backdrop of cosmic rarity.
