Rolex Datejust 69138

Reference 69138 is a premier factory gem-set model from the 26mm Lady-Datejust 69xxx series, produced from approximately 1983 to 1999. Its technical specification denotes a case constructed from solid 18k yellow gold (8), fitted with a factory-set diamond bezel designated by the 13 code (typically 40 brilliant-cut diamonds). The watch is powered by the Rolex Caliber 2135. A key technical variant is the crystal, which transitioned from acrylic to sapphire in the mid-1990s. The significance of the Ref. 69138 lies in its status as a flagship jewelry watch for its generation, representing the final generation of this configuration to feature an acrylic crystal.
