Footnotes

For nearly 70 years now the Day-Date has been an icon of luxury and sophistication for 20th and 21st century watch connoisseurs. A mainstay of Rolex production since 1956, the Day-Date has enjoyed a long history of collaboration and customisation with some modifications being more elaborate than others.

The current lot is a reference 118209 which was launched in 2000 and features the calibre 3155 in a classic 36mm 18K white gold case. The adoption of 18K white gold earned this model a reputation of being a 'stealth wealth' Rolex.
