A representative of the coveted Stella family, identified by the attractive colored lacquered dial, this example of red stella Day-Date is made even more attractive by the diamond-set numerals, which add a further layer of playfulness to the overall design and bestow onto the timepiece a breathtaking aesthetic impact.
The even layer of oxidation that developed on the extremely well preserved case further boosts the look of the piece with a very deep and warm hue, perfect complement for the dramatic red stella dial.
