Rolex Datejust 80359

The Rolex Datejust reference 80359 is not a standard Datejust, but rather a member of the opulent Datejust Pearlmaster collection, produced from the mid-2000s into the 2010s. This reference denotes the Pearlmaster 29 (29mm case) in 18k white gold in one of its most lavish configurations. Its significance lies in its status as a piece of high jewelry, showcasing the pinnacle of Rolex’s factory gem-setting. The reference 80359 specifies a model that is “fully paved”: the dial, the lugs, the signature rounded five-piece link Pearlmaster bracelet, and the bezel are all meticulously factory-set with brilliant-cut diamonds. This transforms the watch from a timepiece into a dazzling bracelet of diamonds and precious metal. Variations are minimal as the reference itself defines this full-diamond layout, but minor differences in the exact diamond carat count could exist. It is powered by the Rolex Caliber 2235, a COSC-certified chronometer, ensuring that its extravagant beauty is matched by mechanical precision.
