The Watch
Rolex Datejusts and Oyster Perpetual Dates are some of the most sought after Rolex models. These watches can be essential to any type of collection, and for many, they're exactly what people think of when they imagine a Rolex.
Here we have a ref. 15210, dating from 2002, a less common example of the Oyster Perpetual Date that first arrived to Rolex's catalog around the late 1980s. On the wrist, it's a watch that will look as good today as it does fifty years from now.
Sized at the less common 34mm diameter, the 15210 is just above the alternative Oyster Perpetual sizing of 31mm, and just below the famed 36mm sizing of the classic Datejust. In this regard, the watch presents as an ideal mid-size option for those with larger wrists looking for something a bit more petite, and conversely those with smaller wrists hunting for something a bit
more substantial.
The Engine Turned bezel is something to write home about; it is fantastic.
Comes with its full set and full box and papers.
