Lot Essay

In order to meet the demands of their clients, Rolex created various versions of the Day-Date, with examples adorned with precious stones, lacquered or stone dials, which are now highly sought after by the most astute collectors. The lapis lazuli version, the favourite gem of Egyptian pharaohs and Royal dynasties throughout history, is perhaps the most eye-pleasing: not only the deep blue colour is breath-taking, but the stone’s natural inclusions add movement and flair to the dial

The present reference 16013 is preserved in very good overall condition, the rarity enhanced by the lapis lazuli dial.
