The story

The current two-tone 31mm Datejust, and the modern answer to the most requested vintage look in the ladies' market: champagne dial, gold fluting, Jubilee bracelet.

The 31mm size is the market's new favorite because it reads as a real watch on any wrist without looking oversized.

It trades a little under retail pre-owned, the normal state for current two-tone Datejusts, so it is a calm, liquid purchase rather than a speculation.

The 2236 movement uses a silicon hairspring, technology that reached the ladies' line before many of the men's models.

Our verdict: B: the sensible modern buy in the hottest size. Champagne on Jubilee is the classic.
