The present timepiece is a highly attractive example of a bejeweled Daytona Cosmograph. Bejeweled pieces have been known since the 80s, when Rolex frst experimented with an extremely limited number of manuallywound bejeweled pieces - references 6269 and 6270. With the advent of the 90s, the marque evolved toward innovative and more exotic designs and Rolex once again, in extremely limited quantities, produced a number of pieces with gem-set bezel and diamond-pavé dial with gem-set numerals, like the present example in outstanding condition.
