This burgundy color shimmers and exhibits a rich complex of red shades, further enhanced with ten diamond hour markers set within its yellow-gold chains. The classic tonneau case realized in yellow gold has withstood the passage of time in a remarkable manner and has been kept in excellent condition with crisp hallmark on the underside of the upper right lug that is exemplified by the presence on the back of the original Rolex sticker. The watch is completed by the particularities of this reference, the bark textured for the bezel and for the inner links of the president bracelet.
