DETAILS

The Day-Date, Rolex’s first timepiece to display a separate day and date feature, was launched in 1956 and is one of the firm’s most iconic models. Throughout its production, it was available in multiple variances with examples adorned with precious stones, lacquered or hardstone dials.

Combining the engineering prowess of horology with the elegance and refinement of jewellery, jewelled watches unite the best of two worlds. The aesthetic appeal of these watches, their undisputed rarity and the superb condition qualify this timepiece as one of the most intriguing and collectible Day-Dates manufactured, unquestionably part of the pinnacle of Rolex's gem-set production.
