Rolex Steel and Yellow Gold Datejust 31 Watch - Fluted Bezel - Mother-Of-Pearl Roman Dial - Jubilee Bracelet - 178273 mrj
Reference 178273 marked a pivotal evolution in the women's Datejust lineage when Rolex introduced this 31mm two-tone configuration, bridging the gap between the smaller 26mm vintage references and the contemporary sizing preferences of modern collectors. The marriage of Oystersteel and 18k yellow gold creates a compelling contrast against the luminous mother-of-pearl Roman numeral dial, while the fluted bezel adds the signature textural element that has defined Datejust aesthetics since 1945. This unworn example represents the refined proportions that established the 31mm case as the contemporary standard for discerning collectors seeking classical Datejust DNA in a wearable package.
