For decades, Rolex watches have been the benchmark for high-grade timepieces, setting the bar through their precision timekeeping, durability, and prestige.

Today's offering proudly showcases this classic Certified Pre-Owned Rolex Oyster Perpetual Ladydate model encased in steel with original solid 18K white gold bezel. We have long loved early vintage Lady Dates and Datejusts for the timeless class.

Lady Rolex watches can be found around Hollywood perched on the wrists of prominent female celebrities such as Angelina Jolie, Jennifer Garner, Gwenneth Paltrow, and Halle Berry to name just a few... Luxurious and very beautiful, it is worthy of a home adorning a deserving woman.

It has 100% original parts down to the original hands, crown, and bracelet. It has just finished a true expertly done restoration and presents in gorgeous condition.

It case presents as just short of mint and its bezel retains crisp unpolished facets. Its original dial has been meticulously restored - its silver printing could pass as Rolex factory done to the naked eye. If you're a discerning collector or woman looking for a vintage Rolex that presents as superior condition, unlike most examples, you've found it.

A Master Watchmaker has fully serviced the watch which consists of fully disassembling the movement, carefully inspecting each part, replacing any overly worn components, reassembling and lubricating the movement, and extensive timing testing and regulation (a $495 value).

It continues to keep time like a new Rolex.

For the finishing touch we have just meticulously detailed making it ready for immediate enjoyment.

Included with the purchase is a one-year C.O.T. international warranty on the movement and its function, a custom printed Connoisseur of Time Certificate of Authenticity, and a new timing certificate.
