Fully Serviced by Former Rolex Authorized Watchmaker ($995 Value) - 1 Year Warranty

Original Papers - Modern No Holes Case - High Quality Diamonds - Gorgeous Condition

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 Rolex Oyster Perpetual Lady Datejust encased in steel with diamond bezel and Rolex Jubilee bracelet with original papers.

It is a modern Rolex with quick-setting date, sapphire, and newer style no holes case.

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 aftermarket brilliant diamond bezel. The round brilliant diamonds are eye clean and bright white with strong fire.

We are proud to present it in gorgeous condition.

Its case presents as mint. Its dial presents as mint. And its case presents as mint.

One of our Master Watchmakers, who used to be the watchmaker for an authorized Rolex dealer and was given special training by Rolex at their Beverly Hills Service Center to be an authorized Rolex watchmaker, has just finished giving the watch a true expertly done refurbishing - he fully serviced the watch which consists of fully disassembling the movement, carefully inspecting each part, replacing any overly worn components with genuine Rolex parts, installing a new mainspring, reassembling and lubricating the movement, extensive timing testing and regulation, and refinishing the case and bracelet. The dial has been expertly refinished by the leading dial specialist in North America (a $1295 value).

Its Rolex Jubilee bracelet shows fairly mild stretch. It shows very little signs of previous polishing with a strong coronet on the clasp - its finish presents as mint.

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

Accompanying the watch is its original Rolex certificate.

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

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. As mentioned, one used to be the watchmaker for an authorized Rolex dealership and was given special training by Rolex at their Beverly Hills Service Center.

We offer shipping the next business day to over 100 countries. In addition, we offer a no hassle money back guarantee if you don't absolutely love it, so there's no risk to you!

Our Selling & Shipping Information:

  • 100% satisfaction guarantee for all of our watches. If you are in any way unsatisfied with it, you are welcome to return it in the condition it was sold anytime within 30 days for a full refund of the purchase price. Our goal is to exceed your expectations throughout the buying experience. We hope you love it!

  • The water resistance of vintage watches can no longer be guaranteed and is not covered under the watch's warranty. We don't recommend getting a vintage watch wet - and really don't recommend showering or diving with it - even one that was originally designed to be waterproof.

  • We have extensive international shipping experience. In the last 12 years we have safely shipped thousands of high value watches around the world (to over 70 countries!).

  • All items are packaged very carefully and mailed in large reinforced shipping boxes appropriate for high value items so you don't need to worry about your watch arriving safely. Wait until you see how big the box is that your watch is coming in!

    (Please do remember though that while we do our very best and have careful procedures and quality control inspections - we will again fully re-test the proper functioning of your watch after you pay, right before we send it to you -
    from time to time some courier workers don't handle packages the way we think that they would want their own packages to be handled.

    Watches are ultra-precision instruments, and the timekeeping of most is governed by a small spring that is only about 1/8 the thickness of a human hair. The vast majority of our watches arrive safely and problem free. However at times vintage watches
    and their hairsprings can be sensitive to rough courier handling or just having a difficult trip to you.

    But even on a bad day there's still good news... We offer a full one-year warranty on virtually every watch we sell (unless occasionally specifically stated otherwise), so if anything happens to it in transit or goes wrong anytime in the first year, we will gladly repair it for you at no charge. Yes, even the older vintage watches. So sit back, relax, and dream about the first place where you're going to wear your new watch!

  • Our official warranty in many ways mirrors those of a number of the watch manufacturers and covers the proper timekeeping of the movement. It does not cover things like abuse, being dropped, crystals, bracelets, crowns, case parts etc. or water resistance. While we are the sole determinants of what qualifies for warranty work.... even if you have a problem that you don't think will qualify for coverage, tell us about it anyway. We are here to serve and just might be able to help you.

  • Winning bidders must fully pay within 48 hours of the end of the auction. After 48 hours the watch will be relisted.

  • To be fair to all bidders, we make it our practice not to end an auction early.

  • Because of the high rate of lost items and number of fraudulent payments, we do not sell or ship to Indonesia or Africa.
