This Rolex Datejust, reference 79163, is a 26mm case in Steel and Yellow Gold used condition, featuring a Silver Stick dial, a Smooth YG bezel, a Oyster bracelet, dated circa 1999. Priced dealer-direct and shipped fully insured.
Versatility carries the value here. One reference family covers 26mm through 41mm, Oystersteel up to solid gold, and dials from clean sunburst to motif to diamond markers. That breadth means there's a Datejust for almost any buyer and any budget between $3,539 and $32,200. The 36mm remains the iconic benchmark, and the current 126xxx generation brought redesigned mid-cases and modern bracelets. Pay by wire and keep more of that spread.

Think of a Rolex as both a watch and a position you can exit. The 1905 Geneva manufacture, started by Hans Wilsdorf, pioneered waterproof cases, self-winding movements, and date functions, earning a precision reputation that runs past horology. The Oyster, Perpetual movement, and Cyclops lens need no introduction. Submariners, GMT-Master IIs, and Daytonas in steel trade above retail, which is why wire-versus-card savings change your real cost. Browse all Rolex ›
