Rolex Date Circa 1986

A gorgeous and extremely well-preserved Rolex Date in solid 14K yellow gold — produced for the U.S. market. Unlike the more common 18K examples, many Rolex watches destined for America were crafted in 14K due to import regulations. A subtle distinction, yet one that adds a unique layer of history. Now sold.

Case & Bracelet:

The solid 14K yellow gold case is in great condition, showing light previous polishing while retaining sharp, even lugs. The bracelet is in stunning condition, showing virtually no stretch and consisting of 13 links — it fits up to an 8-inch wrist. The clasp code dates it to 1986.

Dial & Hands:

The champagne sigma dial is in excellent condition, showing no visible damage or wear. The hands and hour markers have aged gracefully, developing a dark cream lume tone.

Guarantee & Returns:

This watch has undergone service and is running very well. A 48-hour inspection period is provided for returns; the watch must be returned in the same condition in which it was sent.
