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 Lady Date model encased in steel with full diamond bezel and modern Rolex Jubilee bracelet.

We have long loved early vintage Lady Dates and Datejusts for their 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.

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.

With the exception of the luxurious aftermarket diamond bezel set with approximately 40 brilliant cut sparkling diamonds, it is fully Rolex. Its bracelet has been previously upgraded to a more modern style Rolex Jubilee bracelet.

Its case presents as mint with slight signs of previous polishing. All of the original stamping between the lugs on the case back is still fully intact. Its dial, which appears to be original, is gorgeous mint with hardly any toning visible even under magnification. Its pleasingly long, adjustable bracelet shows only mild stretch, and its finish presents as mint. Its movement is near pristine.

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 is running strong and true, keeping time nearly on par with a new Rolex in our testing position.

Your watch is important to us, and we will take care of it for its lifetime. We provide the best after sale care in the business with an extremely experienced team of four Master Watchmakers all of whom each have over thirty-five years of experience and a large number of parts. One used to be the watchmaker for an authorized Rolex dealership and was given special training by Rolex at their Beverly Hills Service Center.

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.
