Rose gold plating has experienced a sustained resurgence in the watch world, and the Lady-Datejust 179171 puts that warm metal front and centre. The combination of a rose-toned dial with rose gold plated bezel and bracelet accents creates a cohesive pink-gold palette that reads as distinctly modern despite the Datejust’s seven-decade heritage. At 26mm with a fluted bezel, this is a reference designed with elegance as its primary objective.

The 179171 Up Close: Case, Dial and Bracelet
The rose dial carries a delicate pink sunburst finish that shifts in intensity with the light. Under warm illumination the tone deepens to a blush, while cooler light brings out a lighter, almost salmon shade. Applied hour markers and hands in matching rose gold plating create a unified colour story across the entire dial surface.
The fluted rose gold-plated bezel adds rhythmic texture that frames the dial with warm-toned ridges. The two-tone Oyster bracelet alternates steel outer links with rose gold plated centre links, extending the colour theme to the wrist. Discover more rose gold options in the Lady-Datejust collection.
