Originally released in 1956, the Day-Date is one of the most iconic watches ever produced.  This yellow gold example comes with a champagne pie pan dial with the very rarely seen dagger hands and claw indices. To avoid paying excess taxes Rolex would sometimes ship the head only and have their bracelets made in the country the watch was being retailed. This example is made in Japan.
