Rolex
Description
This Day-Date epitomizes timeless elegance, boasting a 36mm 18k yellow gold Oyster case, fluted bezel, and matching President bracelet with a concealed Rolex folding clasp. What sets it apart is the rare ferrite stone dial, featuring exquisite black and grey striations complemented by 18k yellow gold Roman numerals. While stone dials offer natural beauty, they are delicate, often developing cracks over time. This 1989 model stands out for its flawless dial, enhancing its value significantly. Equipped with a scratch-resistant sapphire crystal and French day disc, it houses the updated caliber 3055 automatic movement with a single quickset function for date adjustment. Accompanied by its original box and papers, this watch is in excellent condition.
