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 near-mint overall condition. Watch exhibits minor surface wear along case and bracelet, with most wear being visible on polished case sides. The bezel is sharp and has only minor wear on the edge. The lapis lazuli dial with diamond indexes is free from chips or cracks, and is in near-mint condition. The bracelet has 22 links total, 3 of which are removable. There is little stretch.

A wonderfully executed piece of exuberant Rolex design, this example's blue diamond-set dial serves as the perfect backdrop for its 18tk white gold construction.
