Frequently asked questions
What is the lug width of the Rolex Lady-Datejust 279381rbr-0004?
The lug width of the Rolex Lady-Datejust 279381rbr-0004 is 14mm. This measurement is specific to the Lady-Datejust family with a 28mm case diameter. To verify the measurement on your own case, it is advisable to use a digital calliper placed between the lug horns at the strap attachment point.
What is the best strap for the Rolex Lady-Datejust 279381rbr-0004?
For the Lady-Datejust 279381rbr-0004 in Everose and steel, the most suitable straps are in mat grain alligator in rosé, burgundy or nude tones, or in vegetable-tanned calf leather for everyday wear. Shell cordovan offers a sophisticated alternative. A deployant clasp in Everose or steel completes the pairing with consistent finishing.
How do you change the strap on a Rolex Lady-Datejust 28mm?
To replace the strap on the Lady-Datejust 28mm, a fine-tipped springbar tool is required, given the reduced 14mm lug size. Insert the tip into the dedicated hole on the spring bar, compress it and remove the strap. Care should be taken not to scratch the Everose case: using a soft protective cloth is strongly recommended.

How long does a leather strap last on a Rolex Lady-Datejust?
The lifespan of a leather strap depends on material quality, frequency of use and maintenance. An artisan-grade alligator or vegetable-tanned calf strap, kept away from excessive moisture and periodically treated with appropriate conditioners, can last between 3 and 6 years while retaining its aesthetic integrity.
