About this watch

This unworn Rolex 118296 showcases the manufacture's mastery of platinum craftsmanship paired with the ethereal beauty of a glacier blue diamond dial. The 36mm platinum case represents the classic proportions that defined the Day-Date collection since its inception, while the glacier blue dial color—exclusive to platinum models—creates an arresting visual depth enhanced by strategically placed diamond hour markers. The reference 118296 distinguished itself as the pinnacle of the pre-ceramic Day-Date era, combining traditional case architecture with Rolex's most precious metal in a configuration reserved for their most discerning clientele.
