ROLEX. AN EXTREMELY RARE AND IMPRESSIVE PLATINUM AND BAGUETTE DIAMOND-SET AUTOMATIC WRISTWATCH WITH SWEEP CENTER SECONDS, ARABIC CALENDAR, EASTERN ARABIC NUMERALS, AND BRACELET

Instantly recognizable as a platinum Day-Date from the gorgeous and very exclusive ice-blue colored dial made especially for platinum watches, this spectacular watch is elevated even further by featuring not only an Arabic calendar and Arabic numerals but also a magnificent and dazzling baguette diamond-set bezel. Moreover, this exceptional Day-Date is offered in near-mint condition being almost unworn.

Rolex was producing watches with Arabic dials from as early as the 1950s in order to cater to the requirements of the Middle Eastern market, such watches were usually only made by special request and were not part of the mainstream production. Indeed, it was not until 2016 that the company introduced the Day-Date 40 ‘Arabic’ edition. These contemporary timepieces were only supplied to very select retailers in the Middle East and are incredibly rare.
