Can you help me with my Ladies Datejust

I'm trying to figure out exactly what I have here. I received this watch as a gift from a company. The corporate invoice says the following:

179174453B6313 Datejust S8W FLBZ WHR JUB

I'm assuming that in all those number and letters are the exact details of the watch.

What I do know is that it is a Ladies 26mm Datejust with a White Dial and Roman Numerals. I'd like to know the case material (Stainless Steel? 18k White Gold? a Mix?) (The Bezel material SS? WG?) and the band which on the hang tag says 63130 so I'm assuming the B6313 in the model number is the bracelet.

Now I'd like to decode the 179174453 part and the other numbers/letters if they have any meaning.





Thanks.

The Ladies model 179174 indicates a Ladies Datejust. The last 4 means White Gold, which is only the bezel, the rest is stainless steel.

The next numbers indicate dial type - there are hundreds of combinations.

B6313, as you surmised, is the bracelet.

S8W - Stainless & White Gold

FLBZ - Fluted Bezel

WHR - White/Romans

Jub - Jubilee Bracelet

FLBZ
I guess stands for Fluted Bezel
JUB
for jubilee bracelet
However, these I believe are not standard codes used by Rolex. The numbers highlighted by Tools are the "official" ones.

So I got a very detailed explanation from a user here and thought I would share. Here's what he was able to provide:

179174453B6313 decoding :

. It's a 26mm Lady Datejust, model 179174 (74 meaning fluted bezel made of white gold 18ct).

. 4 for Rolesor model (mix of steel and gold).

. 53 is the dial code, 53 for White Roman.

. B6313 means Bracelet 63130, which is a Jubile model made of steel.

Very informative and helpful.

Regards,

Roveer
