Watch Market Comparison
A Rolex Datejust, reference 6917, is a sophisticated blend of vintage character and timeless Rolex luxury. Crafted from solid 18ct yellow gold, its 26mm case is highlighted by a sharp fluted bezel that plays beautifully with the light, lending the watch a refined yet confident presence. The black leather strap adds a touch of classic charm and comfort, while the champagne dial complements the gold case with a warm, radiant glow. Gold baton hour markers and the iconic Cyclops date window at 3 o’clock complete the dial’s clean, balanced design.
Powering this model is the Rolex Calibre 2035 automatic movement—an exceptionally reliable and robust chronometer-grade calibre, well-regarded for its smooth performance and long-term durability. With its quickset date function and fine Swiss engineering, it continues to uphold Rolex’s standard of mechanical excellence.
Offered in good condition and accompanied by its original Rolex paperwork, this timepiece is boxed, certified, and backed by a 12-month WLC warranty for peace of mind.
Vintage Rolex watches—especially those crafted from precious metals, such as this 18ct yellow gold Datejust—have become increasingly sought after by collectors and enthusiasts alike.
