Watch Market Comparison
This Rolex Datejust reference 68278 is a full 18ct yellow gold example from 1998, offering a classic and increasingly scarce configuration in the 31mm size. The solid gold Oyster case is paired with a sharp yellow gold fluted bezel and the iconic President bracelet, a combination traditionally reserved for Rolex’s most prestigious models. The crisp white dial with applied yellow gold Roman numerals provides excellent contrast and timeless elegance, remaining one of the most wearable and enduring Datejust dial layouts.
Powering the watch is the Rolex Calibre 2135 automatic movement, a high-frequency, COSC-certified calibre developed specifically for mid-size Datejust models. Known for its durability and long-term accuracy, it features a quickset date function and is protected by Rolex’s robust Oyster case construction, ensuring reliability alongside everyday practicality.
Presented in immaculate condition, this example is supplied with original Rolex paperwork, box, certification, and a 12-month WLC warranty. A refined, solid-gold Datejust that perfectly balances heritage, precious metal presence, and long-term desirability, making it an excellent addition to any serious Rolex collection.
