First introduced by Rolex in 1956, the Day-Date remains a cornerstone of the brand’s catalog. The Day-Date II Ref. 218206 is an ultra-luxurious iteration crafted entirely from platinum, representing the pinnacle of Rolex’s prestigious Day-Date collection. Launched in 2008, this model features a bold 41mm case, offering a more contemporary presence compared to the traditional 36mm Day-Date.
A defining characteristic of the 218206 is its smooth bezel, setting it apart from other Day-Date models that typically feature fluted bezels. The watch is powered by the Rolex Caliber 3156, an automatic movement with a 48-hour power reserve, enhanced by Paraflex shock absorbers and a Blue Parachrom hairspring for superior precision and durability. The present lot features a black dial with black Arabic indices, seamlessly combining luxury with timeless design.
