Description
In 1945, Rolex first introduced the original Datejust to honor the company's 40th anniversary. The Datejust is one of the oldest collections Rolex ever made and still remains in production to this day. Moreover, the Datejust was the very first self-winding timepiece with a date window that automatically changes over at midnight. The Datejust is an elegant, classic, dependable timepiece, and was designed to be worn every day.
