Rolex is known adopting rare and fragile materials for use as watch dials. The present Day-Date reference 18238 features a marble dial. Due to the fragility of the stone, the manufacturing of the dial requires extreme precision to expose the day and date apertures. With each dial unique in its own right, these pieces are becoming highly collectible among discerning collectors.
