Rolex Datejust 28 | Ref. 279174 | Grey Slate Diamond Dial | 18ct White Gold Bezel | Oystersteel

Why we love this watch

Few watches distil feminine elegance as completely as the Rolex Datejust 28, and reference 279174 represents the model at its most captivating. Presented here in Oystersteel with a 28 mm round case, this piece commands attention from the first glance and rewards closer inspection at every turn. At the heart of the dial is a grey slate sunburst finish that shifts and deepens with the light, lending the watch an almost liquid quality. Diamond hour markers punctuate the dial with precise brilliance, each stone positioned to complement rather than overpower the overall composition. The date window sits cleanly at three o'clock, a hallmark of the Datejust lineage and a practical touch that never interrupts the dial's quiet authority. Framing it all is a fixed bezel in 18ct white gold - a material choice that elevates the Oystersteel case into genuinely precious territory. The contrast between the cool, enduring steel and the warm lustre of white gold is a dialogue this reference handles with effortless confidence. The steel bracelet completes the silhouette, carrying the same understated polish that defines every element of this watch. With a power reserve of 55 hours, the movement sustains performance across days of wear without interruption. This is a Datejust built not only to be worn but to be relied upon - a watch that belongs on the wrist at a formal dinner and a Sunday morning with equal conviction. Reference 279174 is available now through SASO, Brisbane's destination for considered luxury timepieces.
