Assitance please in identifying this Rolex

Good Afternoon,

I am new to this forum, and appreciate any assistance that your expertise might lend. I found this Rolex in a small shop near my home. I enjoy buying unique pieces for my wife, and fell in love with this one. I am having a very difficult time determining the model and time period.

This is what I know. The watch is a 17 Jewel movement, with an 18Kt gold casing (clasp is 14Kt) There is 1.51ct total weight in diamonds. I was unable to take a picture of the interior of the case due to the camera I was using, but it did have a crown hallmark and a number that I believe started with an "R". Based on my research that would put it around 1987, but it just doesn't look like that would be a reasonable year? Top of the face reads Rolex and under the hands reads 'precision'

Can't really help you with that one with such little information.... But we do have some experts here...

The valule of this piece will be as a piece of fine jewelry and the diamonds would likely be the major component.
