ROLEX. A VERY RARE AND ATTRACTIVE 18K GOLD AND DIAMOND-SET AUTOMATIC WRISTWATCH WITH DAY, DATE, SWEEP CENTRE SECONDS, BRACELET, AND LAPIS LAZULI DIAL, ADDITIONAL 18K GOLD BEZEL.

First Rolex timepiece to display a separate day and date feature, the Day-Date was initiated in 1956 and became one of the most iconic model of the manufacture. Throughout its production, the Day-Date was crafted in multiple variances with examples adorned with precious stones, lacquered or hard-stone dials.
Property of an important European collector, the present wristwatch impresses through the immaculate condition of its delicate dial. Lapis-lazuli dials are known for their fragile nature and are increasingly rare to come across in untouched condition. Adding further to the appeal and rarity of the timepiece, the dial is set with an attractive diamond-setting, with baguette and brilliant-cut diamonds, set in yellow gold chatons.
