In the early 2000s, Rolex introduced a selection of vibrant hard stone dials for their Daytona collection, adding a playful twist to their renowned and timeless line of chronographs. These dials came in various colors, including blue, pink, yellow, and the current green, which is crafted from chalcedony —a rare gemstone known for its shades of light to deep green. The production of dials using this delicate material presents a challenge, as even the slightest margin of error can result in fractures. However, Rolex's exceptional craftsmanship achieved absolute precision in creating these dials, which feature four lines of inscription and 18k white gold Arabic numerals. The present lot includes its box and papers, as well as additional items like a lizard card holder and document holder, among others.
