Rolex is often regarded as the pioneer in using various materials in dial manufacturing. From the use of hardstone dials in Day-Date and DateJust to expanding the coverage over the famous Daytona collection in the early 2000s. The current Daytona model features an extremely rare meteorite dial encased in sleek white gold. A mesmerizing material, meteorite not only is very rare due to its extraterrestrial origins but also having the unique mesmerizing texture as light hits from different angles. Not-to-mention the complexity of working with meteorites led to limited production of these dials. Together with all the accessories and in excellent condition, the present watch is highly collectible in terms of exclusivity, a perfect marriage of time and space.
