The Day-Date is arguably one of Rolex's coolest models, and worn indisputably by some of the coolest figures in history. Aesthetically not much has changed since the model was introduced in 1956, testament to its timeless character, though this particular timepiece is especially collectable due to the fact that the dial bears the Khanjar, the emblem of the Sultanate of Oman.
