The Rolex Lady-Date ref. 6517 represents one of the first automatic ladies' models with date from Geneva. This reference, in production from the late 1950s to the 1970s, preserves the classic design of the Datejust line in a compact and elegant format. Its caliber 1160 movement is known for its precision and reliability, and its Oyster bracelet brings a sporty character without losing the distinction of Rolex.
