About this watch

Rolex Steel and Yellow Gold Datejust 31 Watch - Fluted Bezel - Black Index Dial - Oyster Bracelet - 178273 bkio

Powered by Rolex's caliber 2235 automatic movement with a 48-hour power reserve, this Datejust 178273 combines the precision of Swiss engineering with the visual impact of its black index dial against yellow gold case construction. The 31mm proportions represent the contemporary evolution of the mid-size Datejust, offering wrist presence without the bulk of larger sport models. Rolex's signature fluted bezel catches light at every angle, creating the distinctive play of shadows that has defined this reference since its introduction. This unworn example maintains factory-fresh condition, complete with the robust Oyster bracelet that balances the warmth of gold with the durability of steel.

“I purchased my first Porsche 911 from Brett. It was my first time purchasing a car without being able to see it in person and Brett made this process easy. He made sure I knew the exact condition of the car prior to finalizing the purchase.”
