“Turquoise blue, red, fuchsia, orange, green and yellow pieces fit together on a single-colour background, each representing one of the key moments in life. The hours are marked by 10 baguette-cut sapphires in six different hues set according to the main colour of the dial, which is turquoise blue on the 18-carat yellow gold and 18-carat white gold versions, and orange on the watch in 18-carat Everose gold,” read the official Rolex newsroom website.
Did you know the watch is famous for being the ‘President’s watch’? It has been worn by several leaders in the past and present too. This is a waterproof, unisex watch anti-reflective coating Cyclops lens over the date with double anti-reflective coating.

The Day-Date was a major innovation since its launch in 1956. It was the first calendar wristwatch to indicate, in addition to the date, the day of the week spelt out in full in an arc-shaped window at 12 o’clock on the dial – a major technical feat at the time. The day of the week is available in a choice of 26 languages. Watches in the Day-Date range are made only of precious metals – 18-carat yellow, white or Everose gold, or 950 platinum.
