SUMMARY

Since its introduction in 1956, the Rolex Day-Date has become one of Rolex’s most loved designs and was the world’s first wristwatch to display the date as well as the day spelt out in full. This eye-catching reference embodies the Day-Date’s luxurious persona with its 18K rose gold construction and crisp white dial with applied Roman numeral hour markers, also in gold. Beneath the screw-down case back beats Rolex’s in-house chronometer-certified 3155 calibre; a highly-precise automatic movement with a power reserve of 48 hours.

All watches offered for sale are searched and cleared against The Watch Register database and a certificate is available to the winning bidder upon request.

Any watch not covered by a current sales or service warranty should be considered as potentially requiring a service, even if in full working order on the date of purchase
