The Rolex Day-Date stands as a timeless icon in the world of luxury timepieces, epitomizing elegance and horological innovation since its debut in 1956. It goes beyond mere functionality to symbolize status, success, and refined taste. The present 18 346, belonging to the double-quick-set family of Day Dates, is an exquisite platinum timepiece that sets new standards in luxury watchmaking. Distinguished by its classic design, it achieves new levels of elegance with the addition of a diamond bezel and a lapis lazuli dial. The brilliance of the diamonds encircling the watch elevates the Day-Date 18 346 to unparalleled glamour, creating a captivating contrast against the lapis lazuli dial. This semi-precious stone, chosen for its deep blue hue and characteristic golden flecks, imparts a sense of regality and mystique to the timepiece. Each dial is a unique work of art, showcasing the natural beauty of the stone. The 6 and 9 indexes with Roman numerals are adorned with brilliant-cut diamonds, echoing those present on the bezel. The harmonious interplay between the sparkle of diamonds and the deep, celestial blue of the lapis lazuli dial results in a watch that is not only a precision timekeeping instrument but also a symbol of status and refinement. The attention to detail extends to the platinum President bracelet, ensuring a perfect union of form and function. Offered with its box, warranty, and tags, the Day-Date 18 346 with a diamond-set bezel and lapis lazuli dial stands as a beacon of luxury, capturing the essence of timeless sophistication.
