Rolex is one of the most well known names in watches, and by far the most famous in the luxury watch world. If it reads "Rolex Oyster Perpetual Date" it is a Rolex Date model, while "Rolex Oyster Perpetual Datejust" indicates a Datejust.
SizeThe Rolex Date is only available in one size, with a case width of 34mm. The Datejust is available in four sizes, 26, 31, 36 and 41mm the Datejust is not available in 34mm.
MaterialThe Datejust is available in far more variations than the Rolex Date. If the watch in question has both a gold and silver color, it is more likely a Datejust. This has not been true until modern years, so material is not the best method of determining difference.
Watch BandThe watch band may also help determine make. Currently, Rolex Date watches are only available with the "Oyster" style bracelet, while Datejust models are available with either "Oyster" or "Jubilee" bracelets. This is also a modern trend, and does not hold true for all years of the Rolex Date.
Rolex Datejust SpecsI regard Rolex as a lower level luxury watch brand. An american friend and I wrote four editions of a book about "The Costliest Watch Brands", and Rolex was 24th costliest in the 2nd edition and 41st in the 4th edition. Breguet won as costliest overall in the first three editions of our book. Patek Philippe and Vacheron Constantin were second and third. My own basic dress Patek Philippe watch cost 3.66 times as much as the comparable Rolex, and my Vacheron Constantin cost 3.49 times as much. Rolex makes mostly "Oyster Perpetual" sports watches, but it also makes "Cellini" dress wtches.
Rolex is hyped. It spends nearly twice as much on advertising as the next brand. A few years ago, for a basic dress watch in gold with leather strap and manual wind movement to display hours and minute only, my Cartier "Santos Dumont" cost 1.97 times as much as a comparable Rolex "Cellini Biseau", my Vacheron Constantin "Les Historiques" cost 3.49 times as much and my Patek Philippe "Calatrava 3520D" cost 3.66 times as much as the basic Rolex.What is the difference between a Rolex Date a Rolex Datejust
