About this watch.

The Rolex Day-Date has traditionally been available with a wide choice of dials. The 18000-generation most notably added exotic materials like wood and stone to the list – these are often easily identified by their framed day and date windows. The present example, part of a 2013 Christies sale, has a dial in burr wood. It was manufactured in 1985.
