The legacy of the Rolex Day-Date began in 1956 with the reference 6510 and 6511. Since then the Day-Date had not only become the flagship classic but was also given the name of the President's watch. Unlike any timepieces that were available in the market then, the Day-Date provided not only a more refined appearance but it also shares the same robustness of the Rolex brand as it had already sported the Rolex’s patented waterproof Oyster case and self-winding Perpetual movement since it’s first launch.
Today, the Rolex Day-Date has become one of the most popular watch models in the market, and through the years the development of the collection allowed the model to include a broader selection of dial colors, metal options, bezels, bracelet types, and movements.
The watch currently being offered is a reference 18346, crafted of the most noble of all metals. This platinum Day-Date is enhanced with a rare pavé-set diamond dial which compliments the diamond-set bezel and center links on the bracelet. Further accented by the sapphire-set numerals which unmistakably adds to its unprecedented flair.
