Already made extremely attractive and sought-after by its red coral dial, this is just one of the remarkable traits of this timepiece. Of course, the aesthetic impulse given to the entire watch by the dial is momentous: the subtly veined texture of coral make the dial unique, and Rolex's choice of removing any numerals to leave the dial as true protagonist of the watch resulted in a supremely clean, and yet far from dull, design.
The diamond-set lugs are another welcome addition.
Moreover, this timepiece shines as one of the best-preserved Day-Date to ever grace an auction room: complete with its original Rolex guarantee stamped by the Italian retailer Astrua and dated August 1995, this watch is a practical treaty on the original proportions of vintage Day-Dates. The pristine condition of its case, with incredibly full lugs, is immediately apparent at first glance.
