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 Connoisseur of Time Certified Pre-Owned Rolex Oyster Perpetual Ladydate model encased in steel with original solid 18K white gold bezel and wine colored diamond dial.

Our photos could begin to do its condition or the beauty of its dial justice!

We have long loved early vintage Lady Dates and Datejusts for their timeless class. Its design and construction is the same as a Datejust - only the wording on the dial is different.

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 a stunning red wine colored original Rolex dial plate has previously been aftermarket set with brilliant diamonds and refinished in a custom wine color. The round brilliant diamonds are eye clean and bright white with strong fire.

With the exception of the diamonds which have been added to the dial, the rest of the watch has all of original parts down to the hands and winding crown.

It has just finished a true expertly done restoration and presents in gorgeous condition. 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.

Its case presents as just short of perfect mint with signs of polishing to the lugs. The fluted bezel presents as mint with perfectly sharp fluting.

Its dial has been meticulously custom refinished - the printing could pass as Rolex factory done to the naked eye. The color is a beautiful shade of wine.

Its original "rivet" style Rolex Oyster bracelet has only fairly mild stretch. It's finish presents as mint on the wrist.

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 $695 value).

It winds very smoothly. We have also timed it on a machine that simulates it being worn on the wrist. It is keeping very accurate time.

For the finishing touch, we have 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 full-page custom printed Connoisseur of Time Certificate of Authenticity, and a new timing certificate.
