Catalogue Essay
The present Day-Date "Rainbow" was first launched in 2019, recalling vintage Rainbow Day-Dates, as well as the hallowed Rainbow Daytona. This watch most notably displays a "Rainbow"-like dial set with diamonds and gemstones that graduate in hue to mimic the color spectrum. The tones range from a vibrant and intense deep red, and slowly morph into orange, chartreuse, green and blue. The model was made available in a total of four metals including yellow gold, white gold, pink gold and platinum.

Cased in white gold and fitted with a diamond-set bezel, the present Rolex Day-Date ref. 128349RBR from circa 2020 is complete with its full set of accessories and is offered in excellent overall condition. With the ever growing demand from Rainbow timepieces, this is with no doubt a stunning option.

Rolex

Swiss | 1905
Founded in 1905 England by Hans Wilsdorf and Alfred Davis as Wilsdorf & Davis, it soon became known as the Rolex Watch Company in 1915, moving its headquarters to Geneva in 1919. Like no other company, the success of the wristwatch can be attributed to many of Rolex's innovations that made them one of the most respected and well-known of all luxury brands. These innovations include their famous "Oyster" case — the world's first water resistant and dustproof watch case, invented in 1926 — and their "Perpetual" — the first reliable self-winding movement for wristwatches launched in 1933. They would form the foundation for Rolex's Datejust and Day-Date, respectively introduced in 1945 and 1956, but also importantly for their sports watches, such as the Explorer, Submariner and GMT-Master launched in the mid-1950s.One of its most famous models is the Cosmograph Daytona. Launched in 1963, these chronographs are without any doubt amongst the most iconic and coveted of all collectible wristwatches. Other key collectible models include their most complicated vintage watches, including references 8171 and 6062 with triple calendar and moon phase, "Jean Claude Killy" triple date chronograph models and the Submariner, including early "big-crown" models and military-issued variants.
