Rolex Day-Date 1806 Green Stella Dial Florentine Finish Brick Bracelet

A legendary timepiece with an unrivaled history, the Rolex Day-Date has earned its place as "The Ultimate Watch of Prestige" from its decades on the wrists of the world's most influential people. Released in 1956, the Day-Date quickly became synonymous with luxury, prestige, and exclusivity thanks to being the watch of choice for the world's athletes, visionaries, and world leaders alike. Only ever constructed of precious metals, the Day-Date's aesthetic is that of sheer elegance and grace. Aside from the beautiful array of dial options that have been available over the decades, the Day-Date's most iconic piece of design is its three-piece "Presidential" or "President" bracelet. Forming the bedrock of its design, the Presidential bracelet has become synonymous with Rolex's flagship collection and their desire to create the very best and most iconic watches that the world has ever seen. With its timeless design and inescapable impact on horology, the Day-Date stands as a vivid reminder of just how successful they have been in realizing that very mission. THE DIAL Fusing faceted gold indexes along with the rich green lacquer dial gives this ref. 1806 an especially charming aesthetic. THE CONSTRUCTION Boasting an incredibly unique florentine finish, this ref. 1806 features hash marks across the entirety of the surface of its brick bracelet, case and bezel, which gives its 36mm 18kt yellow gold construction an entirely different aesthetic to Day-Dates without the finish.
