Produced through the mid-to-late 1980s, the 69163 pairs a stainless steel case with an 18k yellow gold bezel and crown — the two-tone Rolesor construction that defines the reference — driven by an automatic movement with central seconds and a screw-down crown. The combination of quick-set date and Oyster-case water resistance gave the Lady-Datejust a seriousness that smaller dress watches of the era rarely matched.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThis example presents on the champagne dial with stick indices and a smooth bezel — the configuration that ages most gracefully in the two-tone format, where a busier dial or fluted bezel can tip toward ornate. The Oyster bracelet keeps the proportions grounded. Champagne dials from this period develop a warmth that photographs flatten entirely; in hand, the tone shifts with the light in a way that makes the watch feel considered rather than merely decorated. Dated to 1987, it retains all original parts.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eOffered in very good condition throughout — case, crystal, dial, bracelet, bezel, and caseback all showing hardly visible signs of wear — as a watch only.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"My Store","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":55048252227797,"sku":"IT5237","price":4390.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0819\/3182\/9461\/files\/653_B.webp?v=1790700678","url":"https:\/\/iconic-timepieces.com\/products\/rolex-lady-datejust-69163-champagne-dial-on-oyster-1987","provider":"Iconic Timepieces","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
