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.

Watch is in very good overall condition. The case shows light wear on the factory "Florentine" finish. The transition between the polished portion of the caseback and the brushed center are a bit soft as seen in the images. The original factory green stella dial is in good condition There is a substantial area of the bottom edge that has cracked and fallen off from approx the 22 minute to 35 minute edge, as well as between the 43 minute to 44 minute edge. The surface of the dial itself is still glossy and generally free from defects. The remaining luminous dots are fully intact except for the 3 o'clock one that is partially broken. The Florentine finish brick band has 36 links and fits an approx 8" wrist. It shows light to moderate stretch.

Combining a green stella dial with a Florentine finish and a brick has resulted in this ref. 1806 being an intensely unique version of the Day-Date that stands out for its trifecta of interesting talking points that will certainly have any collector drooling over this beauty.
