The Datejust 126234-0017 pairs a blue fluted motif dial with the classic 36mm Oystersteel case that has defined Rolex dress-sport watchmaking since 1945. Unlike a conventional sunburst, the fluted pattern creates a series of vertical ridges across the dial face, catching light in parallel lines that echo the fluted bezel design found on other Datejust configurations.

The 126234-0017 Up Close: Case, Dial and Bracelet
The 36mm Oystersteel case maintains the proportions that made the Datejust a mid-century icon. A smooth domed bezel keeps the overall look understated, letting the blue fluted motif dial serve as the focal point. The vertical ridges on the dial surface shift from deep navy in shadow to bright cobalt under direct light, producing a textured appearance that flat dials cannot replicate.
The five-piece link Jubilee bracelet provides a supple, dressy wrist feel and terminates in a concealed folding Oysterclasp. A Cyclops lens at three o’clock magnifies the date window. Browse more Datejust references with varied dial textures in the Datejust collection.
