A Rolex Datejust is a rare and highly collectable early example of one of the most important models in Rolex history, presented in full 18ct yellow gold with a cream dial. The 36mm case reflects classic mid-century proportions, paired with a matching yellow gold bracelet that reinforces its unmistakable vintage character. The dial displays aged patina consistent with its era, featuring applied hour markers, dauphine-style hands, and the signature date window at 3 o’clock, underscoring the pioneering design language of the original Datejust.
This example is the reference 5030 and is powered by the Rolex Calibre A.296 automatic movement. As one of Rolex’s early self-winding movements, the A.296 played a key role in establishing the technical foundations of the Datejust line. Dated to 1949, this watch sits firmly within the first generation of Datejust production, making it particularly desirable to collectors seeking historically significant Rolex pieces.
Offered in vintage condition, the watch is accompanied by authenticity paperwork and backed by a 12-month WLC warranty. A rare opportunity to acquire a true early Rolex classic with enduring historical importance.
