Rolex, founded in 1905 by Hans Wilsdorf, is one of the world's most prestigious watchmakers, a symbol of innovation, precision and timeless style. Since its inception, the brand has revolutionized the concept of the wristwatch, introducing key innovations such as the waterproof Oyster case and the automatic movement with a Perpetual rotor. In 1945, the Datejust was born, the first automatic wristwatch with a jump date display, an absolute innovation that would forever mark the history of watchmaking. Its elegant and functional design makes it immediately recognizable, becoming over time one of the brand's most beloved collections. The reference 68278 represents a refined and luxurious version of this legendary model, perfectly combining Rolex tradition with high-end details and an aesthetic designed for those seeking elegance and versatility in a more compact format.
The Rolex Datejust reference 68278 is crafted from 18K yellow gold and features a 31mm Oyster case with a fluted bezel, ideal proportions for those who want a watch that makes an impression but is comfortable to wear every day. The original factory dial is embellished with brilliant-cut diamond hour markers set in gold settings, ensuring elegance and readability. The three-link President bracelet, also in solid gold, expresses all of Rolex's mastery in the workmanship of noble metals, offering comfort and refinement. The watch is in excellent condition, recently serviced at our in-house laboratory, with all the original components. Complete with original box, it represents a rare and highly valuable opportunity for collectors and enthusiasts.
