Frequently asked questions
What is the lug width of the Rolex Lady-Datejust 279165-0015?
The Rolex Lady-Datejust 279165-0015 has a lug width of 14mm. This measurement is specific to the Lady-Datejust 28mm family and is not interchangeable with larger Datejust references or other Rolex models.
What is the best strap for the Rolex Lady-Datejust 279165-0015?
For an 18kt Everose gold case, a flat-belly alligator strap — in either gloss or semi-matte finish — is the most formally coherent choice. Alternatively, a vegetable-tanned calf leather strap develops an authentic patina over time and suits daily wear. The required lug width is 14mm.
How do you change the strap on a Rolex Lady-Datejust 279165-0015?
The strap on the Lady-Datejust 279165-0015 is removed using a thin-tip springbar tool inserted into the lug holes. Care should be taken when working around the 18kt rose gold case to avoid scratching. If in doubt, it is advisable to consult a watchmaker or the Casati Milano atelier.
Are there aftermarket straps compatible with the Rolex Lady-Datejust 279165-0015?
Yes. Any strap with a 14mm attachment width is technically compatible with the Rolex Lady-Datejust 279165-0015. Milano Straps offers a selection of handcrafted 14mm straps in alligator, calf leather and other materials, tailored to fit the lugs of this reference precisely.
How long does a leather strap last on a Rolex Lady-Datejust 279165-0015?
Longevity depends on the material, frequency of use and care. A quality alligator strap, with regular wear and proper maintenance — avoiding prolonged exposure to water and perspiration — typically lasts between 2 and 4 years. A vegetable-tanned calf leather strap has a similar lifespan and develops a distinctive personal patina over time. Casati Milano provides an 18-month guarantee against manufacturing defects.
