DAY-DATE 36

The Oyster Perpetual Day-Date 36 in 18 ct yellow gold, with a green ombré, diamond-set dial, diamond-set bezel and a President bracelet.

Its dial features Diamonds in 18 ct gold settings and baguette-cut diamonds at 6 and 9 o'clock. The Day-Date was the first watch to indicate the day of the week spelt out in full when it was first presented in 1956.

DIAMOND-SET BEZEL

A SPARKLING SYMPHONY

Gem-setters, like sculptors, finely carve the precious metal to hand-shape the seat in which each gemstone will be perfectly lodged. With the art and craft of a jeweller, the stone is placed and meticulously aligned with the others, then firmly secured in its gold or platinum setting. Besides the intrinsic quality of the stones, several other criteria contribute to the beauty of Rolex gem-setting: the precise alignment of the height of the gems, their orientation and position, the regularity, strength and proportions of the setting as well as the intricate finishing of the metalwork. A sparkling symphony to enhance the watch and enchant the wearer.
