What makes this lot exceptional is the rare blood-stone dial. Due to the complexity of assembling wristwatches hard-stone dials, many examples encompass hairline cracks after being fitted to a watch case, or following shocks due to wear. Hence, with its intact dial in crisp condition, this lot is a stunning example for collectors. In excellent overall condition it demonstrates the “savoir-faire” of Rolex.
