Rolex Datejust 68288 Description

Reference 68288 is a rare, factory gem-set model from the 31mm ‘Mid-Size’ Datejust 68xxx series, produced from the 1980s to the late 1990s. Its technical specification denotes a case constructed from 18k yellow gold (8) with the 28 configuration code. This code specifies a factory brilliant-cut diamond bezel paired with a factory 18k yellow gold President bracelet whose center links are also factory-set with brilliant-cut diamonds. The watch is powered by the Rolex Caliber 2135, the first Rolex ladies’ (and mid-size) caliber to achieve COSC chronometer certification. The significance lies in its status as a top-tier, fully integrated jewelry timepiece in the less common 31mm size.
