This exquisite platinum features an exceptionally rare blue sodalite dial adorned with diamond-set numerals. The sodalite dial's deep blue surface, characterized by its unique variations, provides a striking contrast that allows the brilliance of the diamond-set numerals and the elegance of the gold case to shine. As with all hard-stone dials, the calendar windows are encased in white metal, enhancing their clarity and sophistication. Hardstone dials are esteemed for their beauty and desirability within the Day-Date collection, with Rolex having employed various stones such as onyx, malachite, marble, agate, and jade.
This present model is offered in very good condition and comes with Rolex Guarantee, service card, pouch and presentation case with outer packaging.
