Description
Rolex Datejust Mid-Size 6824 - Argenté Dial - Stainless Steel and 18K Yellow Gold
Introduced in 1945, the Rolex Datejust is one of the most important and enduring models in the history of the Maison. It was the first self-winding, waterproof chronometer wristwatch to display the date through a dedicated window on the dial, establishing a design and technical formula that would become a standard throughout the watchmaking industry.
Over the following decades, the Datejust evolved through a wide variety of sizes, materials and dial configurations while preserving its unmistakable identity. The date aperture positioned at 3 o’clock, enhanced by the characteristic Cyclops magnifying lens, became one of the collection’s most recognisable elements, combining immediate readability with a distinctive visual signature.
The reference 6824 belongs to the mid-size interpretation of the Datejust. Its compact proportions offer a balanced alternative to the traditional 36 mm version, retaining the presence and functionality of the classic model in a more discreet format. The automatic movement, Oyster case and screw-down crown reflect Rolex’s longstanding focus on precision, reliability and everyday practicality.
The combination of stainless steel and 18K yellow gold embodies the concept of Rolesor, a distinctive Rolex design language that brings together the strength of steel and the elegance of precious metal. This contrast gives the reference a versatile character, positioned naturally between a functional daily watch and a refined formal timepiece.
With its harmonious and versatile proportions, instantly recognisable date display, and timeless construction, this well-preserved Rolex Datejust reference 6824 is the perfect companion for everyday wear and a superb expression of one of the most celebrated and important watch designs ever created.
