Consigned by a private collector, the present timepiece is preserved in excellent overall condition and sold with the full set of accessories.
When it comes to experimenting, researching, and inventing new dial materials for use in wristwatches, Rolex has always been at the vanguard. Highly attractive, the present timepiece is one of the fascinating small series made with meteorite dials, finished with an acid wash to enhance the natural pattern of the meteorite known scientifically as the 'Widmanstätten' pattern, the lustrous silvery effect perfectly complementing the white gold case. Now only reserved for Rolex’s more premium models (mostly in white gold), these meteorite models offer owners a chance to possess a truly special Day-Date model.
The Day-Date, Rolex’s first timepiece to display a separate day and date feature, was launched in 1956 and is one of the firm’s most iconic models. Throughout its production, it was available in multiple variances with examples adorned with precious stones, lacquered or hardstone dials.
