Why The Lady Datejust 31 Can Be Considered an Iconic Watch

When the iconic Rolex Datejust collection was released 79 years ago, the Datejust had a 36mm dial size. It was considered a unisex watch, and some women may have preferred to wear these watches in larger dial sizes, such as the 41mm edition (the Datejust II), which the company discontinued.

However, Rolex also rolled out 28mm and 31mm dial sizes for women who prefer to complement their attire without wearing a size that resembles men's Datejust watches. This may be why the Rolex Datejust 31 enjoys a unique place in women's luxury watch catalogs.

The Lady Datejust collection was exclusively released in the 1950s and over the decades the series has come a very long way. What has also made this series so iconic is the sheer number of options the wearer can choose from. From a variety of unique materials to straps, colors, and designs, the Rolex Datejust 31 immediately hits the spot when you talk about design versatility.

The company has ensured that there is something for everyone and that each individual can choose a style that fits with their lifestyle and individual preferences. For example, the company launched an exclusive Datejust 31 edition in 2012.

The watch comprises a bracelet made from 18-carat gold, the bezel consists of 48 diamonds, the dial is adorned with 8 diamonds, and there is a slew of rubies placed in various positions on the dial.

Peeking At The History of the Women's Datejust 31

While the men's Datejust collection was introduced to the world in 1945, it was more than a decade later that the brand exclusively released the women's models. The first Lady Datejust timepieces had a 26mm dial size, and in the late 50s, Rolex gradually released different sizes, such as the 31mm. The Datejust 31 became known as a mid-sized luxury women's watch thanks to its petite and sleek look.

Well-received by watch enthusiasts and collectors, the Rolex Datejust 31 skyrocketed to fame and arguably became the company's bestselling timepiece for women. It may also be said that even today, the Datejust 31 is a very successful and sought-after model. The variety of materials, straps, and colors this iteration of the Datejust is available in proves this notion.

Meticulous Excellence and Legendary Design

Rolex's commitment to design excellence and top-notch craftsmanship is evident from the company's use of 18-carat gold for the Datejust 31.

But what's special about the gold Rolex uses is that the company has its own foundry and factory where this gold is crafted and cast. This is unlike a lot of other prestigious brands that have to rely on third-party foundries.

In addition, the watch's Oyster case is a design marvel in itself. The gold bezel is waterproof, and the timepiece comprises a cutting-edge Twinlock water-resistant system that is manufactured by Rolex and patented. The watch is also imbued with a scratch-resistant, high-quality sapphire crystal on the dial.

These design features make the Datejust 31 a remarkable and long-lasting luxury watch. The Rolex Datejust for women is the embodiment of a fashion-forward wristwatch while equally being easy on the wrists. It is an ideal wrist companion for style-centric women with a busy schedule.

The Lady Datejust 31: An Evergreen Status

Five years ago, in 2019, Rolex launched two beautiful versions of the Datejust 31 in exquisite stainless steel and gold. One version had an irresistible yellow Rolesor matched with a gorgeous green sunray dial, and the second variation came in a refreshing and awe-inspiring everose Rolesor with a gentle pink dial.

These two watches comprise a sophisticated, fluted bezel design adorned with glitter that catches the eye from every angle. After 2019, the brand continued to launch other wonderful iterations of the classic Datejust 31 in different types of elegant and high-quality finishes such as Oystersteel, yellow, rose gold, white gold, white Rolesor, and much more.

When it comes to modern bezel designs, the contemporary versions of the watch come in beautiful finishes such as diamond-adorned, sleek, and fluted bezels.

The wearer also has so many dial options and colors to choose from, and better yet, there is also a selection of bracelets the watch comes in such as the epic President, the legendary Oyster, and the Jubilee bracelets.

The Rolex Datejust 31 is more than an instrument that tells time. It has transcended into a symbol of boundless style, unflinching elegance, and enduring sophistication. In addition, it is also a very comfortable watch to wear, giving the individual the opportunity to flaunt this magnificent timepiece by pairing it with just any type of attire or occasion.

The Sublime Horological Engineering of the Rolex Datejust

The Rolex Datejust 31 is powered by the company's patented and in-house perpetual movement caliber 2236. In addition to that, the watch consists of a durable construction featuring a long-lasting sapphire crystal on the dial and screw-down water-resistant technology.
