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 excellent overall condition. Bezel has sharp and well defined teeth, case has minor surface wear, including small scratches and marks as visible in the images. The original factory Lapis Lazuli dial is free from any cracks or chips. The crystal has a few minor chips, visible near the 9 o'clock edge. Bracelet has 24 links total, 5 of which are removable. There is little stretch.

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