Launched in 1945, the Datejust was the world’s first self-winding, waterproof chronometer wristwatch to feature a date display in a window at 3 o’clock—an innovation that marked a new era in modern watchmaking. Enhanced in 1953 by the now-iconic Cyclops lens magnifying the date, the Datejust redefined daily timekeeping with functionality and timeless elegance.
This example, featuring a striking black dial, embodies the Datejust’s enduring appeal: precise, legible, and effortlessly sophisticated. Worn by statesmen, visionaries, and cultural icons alike, the Datejust remains a symbol of personal milestones and modern achievement.
