• What is the difference between the Rolex 179313 and 179173?

  Both are 26mm two-tone Yellow Rolesor Lady-Datejust references using the Caliber 2235, sapphire crystal, and Jubilee or Oyster bracelets. The only meaningful difference is the bezel.

• When was the Rolex Datejust 179313 produced?

  The Rolex Datejust 179313 was produced from approximately 2006 through 2017. It was eventually replaced when Rolex retired the 26mm Lady-Datejust case and moved the ladies line to the current 28mm Lady-Datejust 28 (the 279xxx series). Production year on a specific 179313 can be estimated from the random serial number on the case at the 6 o'clock position.

• Is the Rolex 179313 a good investment?

  The 179313 has shown solid value retention as a discontinued reference with a fixed supply on the secondary market. As a gem-set ladies' reference, it benefits from steady demand for the diamond fluted bezel design. Original dials, sharp cases, intact diamond settings, and complete box and papers carry the most upside. For comparison, browse our women's Rolex collection.
