In order to meet the demands of their clients, Rolex created various versions of the Day-Date, with examples adorned with precious stones, lacquered or stone dials, which are now highly sought after by the most astute collectors.
The present ref. 16018 is preserved in excellent overall condition, the rarity enhanced by the lapis lazuli dial. These dials are known for their fragile nature and are increasingly scarce to find in unharmed condition.
The lapis lazuli version, the favourite gem of Egyptian pharaohs and Royal dynasties throughout history, is perhaps the most eye-pleasing: not only the deep blue colour is breath-taking, but the stone’s natural inclusions add movement and flair to the dial
