A fluted bezel is THE bezel Rolex made for this model.

Welcome to TRF.
You asked about size, 26 mm is the answer but hope you're not planning to do it yourself.

The Ladies 26mm Datejust is probably the most commonly fitted watch with diamond aftermarket bezels..

Most jewelers who offer bezels will know what will fit by giving them the model number.. The bezel is not meant to be removed easily without proper tools, so I do hope that you seek qualified help in finding and fitting another bezel..

Not to hijack the thread, but if one had a bezel in-hand for a datejust, what is a fair price to have one replaced by a watchmaker?

Thanks for the respones. No, I will not attempt to change it on my own. I will be taking it in to a watch maker. I just didn't know what size would fit my model. I found a bezel at a consignment store that I wanted to buy and they didn't know what model watch it would fit.
