Rolex Datejust 178269

Reference 178269 is an exceptionally rare haute joaillerie model from the 31mm ‘Mid-Size’ Datejust 178xxx series, produced from c. 2006 onwards. Its technical specification denotes a case constructed from 18k white gold (9) with the 26 configuration code. This code specifies a factory brilliant-cut diamond bezel paired with a full factory-set pavé diamond dial, often with baguette-cut diamond hour markers. It is powered by the Caliber 2235. The significance of the Ref. 178269 lies in its specific ‘dial-forward’ luxury configuration on a white gold platform.
