To celebrate its anniversary that year, the  company brought out the Oyster Perpetual 4467. A variation on the Oyster, the 4467 indicates the date as well as the time on its also newly introduced Jubilee bracelet. Although its original name may be familiar to only the most confirmed watch cognoscenti, the model became quite well-known under its later appellation, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.1stdibs.com\/designs\/rolex-datejust-watch\/\">Rolex Datejust<\/a>. In fact, it\u2019s been the maker&#8217;s <a href=\"https:\/\/www.1stdibs.com\/blogs\/the-study\/most-popular-watch-brands\/\">best-selling watch collection<\/a> for much of its existence, per <a href=\"https:\/\/robbreport.com\/style\/watch-collector\/gallery\/rolex-datejust-history-1236797698\/rr_20250604_datejust_history_4467\/\"><em>Robb Report<\/em><\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In the 80 years since its launch, the Datejust has undergone countless minute adjustments, as well as several more immediately evident transformations. One of the most significant changes was the addition, in 1955, of the Cyclops window, which magnifies the size of the date 2.5 times, increasing functionality while adding dimension to the watch face. As a bonus, if you&#8217;re shopping on the resale market, checking the magnification of the Cyclops can help you determine whether <a href=\"https:\/\/www.1stdibs.com\/blogs\/the-study\/how-to-spot-a-fake-rolex\/\">the Rolex you\u2019re eyeing is genuine<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Throughout the model&#8217;s various transformations, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.rolex.com\/en-us\">Rolex<\/a> has paired it with three different bracelets: the original Jubilee, beloved by many for its rounded links and comfortable feel, the Oyster and the President. Whether you\u2019re <a href=\"https:\/\/www.1stdibs.com\/blogs\/the-study\/how-to-buy-a-rolex\/\">looking to buy a Rolex<\/a> for everyday wear or for more formal occasions, the collection comes in varieties to fit every need, one reason it is such a classic.<\/p>\n\n\n\t<div class=\"wp-block-firstdibs-pdp-carousel\">\n\t\t\n<h3 class=\"pdp-carousel-heading\">Shop Rolex Datejust Watches on 1stDibs<\/h3>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\t\t<div class=\"swiper block-21635a6c\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"swiper-wrapper gallery\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"wp-block-firstdibs-pdp-item swiper-slide\">\n\t\t<div class=\"pdp-item\">\n\t\t\t<a class=\"pdp-item--link\" href=\"https:\/\/www.1stdibs.com\/jewelry\/watches\/wrist-watches\/new-rolex-datejust-41-steel-white-gold-mint-green-dial-automatic-watch-126334\/id-j_20564252\/\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"pdp-item__image\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\tsrc=\"https:\/\/a.1stdibscdn.com\/rolex-datejust-41-steel-white-gold-mint-green-dial-automatic-watch-126334-for-sale\/j_13103\/j_205642521696535849294\/j_20289292_1694010158805_bg_processed.jpg?width=350&#038;auto=webp&#038;quality=80\"\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\talt=\"Rolex Datejust 41 Automatic Watch 126334 with Mint Green Dial, 2023\"\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\twidth=\"350px\"\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\theight=\"100%\" \/>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"pdp-item__title\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\tRolex Datejust 41 Automatic Watch 126334 with Mint Green Dial, 2023\t\t\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t<\/a>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t<\/div>\n\t\t<div class=\"wp-block-firstdibs-pdp-item swiper-slide\">\n\t\t<div class=\"pdp-item\">\n\t\t\t<a class=\"pdp-item--link\" href=\"https:\/\/www.1stdibs.com\/jewelry\/watches\/wrist-watches\/rolex-datejust-36mm-champagne-dial-two-tone-yellow-gold-oystersteel-watch-126203\/id-j_26719292\/\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"pdp-item__image\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\tsrc=\"https:\/\/a.1stdibscdn.com\/rolex-datejust-36mm-champagne-dial-two-tone-yellow-gold-oystersteel-watch-126203-for-sale\/j_17711\/j_267192921751391283715\/j_26719292_1751391284188_bg_processed.jpg?width=350&#038;auto=webp&#038;quality=80\"\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\talt=\"Rolex Datejust Two-Tone Oystersteel and Gold Watch 126203, 2023\"\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\twidth=\"350px\"\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\theight=\"100%\" \/>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"pdp-item__title\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\tRolex Datejust Two-Tone Oystersteel and Gold Watch 126203, 2023\t\t\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t<\/a>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t<\/div>\n\t\t<div class=\"wp-block-firstdibs-pdp-item swiper-slide\">\n\t\t<div class=\"pdp-item\">\n\t\t\t<a class=\"pdp-item--link\" href=\"https:\/\/www.1stdibs.com\/jewelry\/watches\/wrist-watches\/lady-rolex-datejust-ref-69173-champagne-dial-rolex-service-card\/id-j_29144292\/\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"pdp-item__image\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\tsrc=\"https:\/\/a.1stdibscdn.com\/lady-rolex-datejust-ref-69173-champagne-dial-rolex-service-card-for-sale\/j_40322\/j_291442921776229701280\/502_05509_3123384_master.jpeg?width=350&#038;auto=webp&#038;quality=80\"\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\talt=\"Lady Rolex Datejust Ref 69173 Champagne Dial- Rolex Service Card\"\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\twidth=\"350px\"\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\theight=\"100%\" \/>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"pdp-item__title\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\tLady Rolex Datejust Ref 69173 Champagne Dial- Rolex Service Card\t\t\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t<\/a>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t<\/div>\n\t\t<div class=\"wp-block-firstdibs-pdp-item swiper-slide\">\n\t\t<div class=\"pdp-item\">\n\t\t\t<a class=\"pdp-item--link\" href=\"https:\/\/www.1stdibs.com\/jewelry\/watches\/wrist-watches\/rolex-datejust-rare-blue-stella-dial-69178\/id-j_23694482\/\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"pdp-item__image\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\tsrc=\"https:\/\/a.1stdibscdn.com\/rolex-datejust-rare-blue-stella-dial-69178-for-sale\/j_6073\/j_236944821722616243220\/j_23694482_1722616243562_bg_processed.jpg?width=350&#038;auto=webp&#038;quality=80\"\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\talt=\"Rolex Datejust Rare Blue Stella Dial 69178\"\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\twidth=\"350px\"\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\theight=\"100%\" \/>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"pdp-item__title\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\tRolex Datejust Rare Blue Stella Dial 69178\t\t\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t<\/a>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t<\/div>\n\t","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>By 1945, Rolex had already made a name for itself with its impressive waterproof Oyster watch.
