The Day-Date is well known for having been a canvas onto which Rolex unleashed an innumerable amount of variations and experiments. Among the most appreciated stylistic exercises, the collector will without a doubt mention the famed hard stone dials. Rolex experimented with a number of different materials for these dials: coral, malachite, marble, fossils and others.
In very good overall condition, the present wristwatch is crafted in an 18k gold case and features a highly attractive Bloodstone dial. Most of the hard stone dial, such as the present one, are free from scales or numerals: Rolex probably realized that the material in itself achieves a mesmerizing aesthetic result, and decided to leave the dial without further decorations.
