The present ref. 116589 is an extremely well-preserved example of a Rolex Sapphire Daytona, the overall appeal enhanced by the rare diamond-set sodalite dial. As all natural stone dials vary in colour and shade, none is similar in appearance, rendering them unique.
The classic combination of the white gold case and blue sodalite dial enhanced by diamond-set numerals is one of the most beautiful variants ever created for the Daytona line.
The present example pushes the boundaries of both rarity and attractiveness even further with the addition of the baguette-cut sapphire-set bezel.
Only a handful of this highly appealing Daytona model are thought to have been made and very few have appeared in public, rendering the present example a trophy for the aficionado of rare timepieces.
Sodalite
The name sodalite is a compound word from Latin sodium and Greek lithos for stone and refers to its high sodium content. Sodalite was first found in the Ilímaussaq massif in the province of Kitaa (West Greenland) and described in 1812 by Thomas Thomson
