The bezel is a smooth bezel, which is less common than the fluted bezel!
Polished bezels are common in solid platinum,
The solid YG smooth bezel/day-date is fresh!
The individual we are introducing this time is,
This is an extremely rare piece that uses the fossil
"ammonite" on the dial!
Ammonites existed between about 400 million and 66 million years ago.
It is a creature that lived in the sea and became extinct at the same time as the dinosaurs.
Its Japanese name is "Kikuishi" (Mikuishi).
Because they are fossils that have existed in large numbers for hundreds of millions of years,
It is said to symbolize prosperity and bring wealth and success!
It's amazing that Rolex would use ammonites as dials!!
There are other Day-Date dials that use fossils,
Overseas, it is nicknamed "Jurassic" and "Jurassic Park"!
This fossil dial...
If you look closely, you will see that it has a very mysterious pattern.
Am I the only one who feels a sense of intense romance?
The condition is a little bit, there are scratches from use,
This product has been overhauled and finished by the manufacturer in August 2022, so
Overall it is in good condition!
The middle case is also not overly finished!!
The bracelet is in good condition with very little wear!
Unfortunately, there is no warranty for the accessories.

This is an attractive product that has had maintenance completed by the manufacturer this month!
Wrist shot!!
A masterpiece that exudes romance!!
