Notes

While the stainless steel Datejust represents for many collectors, the entry point to the Rolex collecting world, this white gold version is the opposite in terms of rarity and value. Fitted with an already rare onyx dial, only very few examples are known in white gold and its case has been very well preserved with deep hallmarks. The true definition of rarity, class and discretion.
