Asprey has a rich legacy of retailing customized Rolex watches, dating back to the 1970s when the Omani government commissioned a series of bespoke “Omani” dial Rolex timepieces as gifts for British SAS soldiers involved in suppressing the Dhofar Rebellion from 1970 to 1976. Over the years, this British luxury jeweler, in collaboration with the Bamford Watch Department, has produced limited editions of customized Rolex Submariners, Milgausses, and Daytonas. Presenting a diverse range of Rolex models, including the Cellini, Oyster Perpetual Lady-Datejust, and the 18 kt. Everose version of the Oyster Perpetual Yacht-Master with the patented Oysterflex strap. Among these, the Datejust is a noteworthy model customized by Asprey in its distinctive style, similar to the lot presented here. Derived from the coveted Datejust 126 300 in Steel, Asprey has undertaken a complete transformation of the watch’s layout. The steel bezel undergoes a stunning metamorphosis, adopting a captivating green hue courtesy of baguette tourmaline, complemented by baguette diamonds. Notably, Rolex introduced a special dial for the Datejust II in 2009, symbolizing the collaboration with the Wimbledon series. This Wimbledon dial features a slate grey face with Roman markings accentuated by a traditional green tint. The exclusive Wimbledon dial, bearing the Asprey signature, adds a distinctive touch. This unique timepiece, engraved on the case back as 1/1, and fully customized by Asprey on a special request of a VIP client, is a testament to its exclusivity. Presented with its custom purple Asprey box and papers, the watch encapsulates the pinnacle of craftsmanship and personalized luxury.
