A solid 18K yellow gold execution elevates it from a daily staple to a statement of intent. When that gold case is paired with a factory black onyx dial, the watch enters another territory of rarity and collector focus. Stone dials were produced in limited quantities and required specialized craftsmanship, making them a priority for those who want a Datejust that stands apart from the rest.\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eThe Power Of A Stone Dial\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003eThe jet-black onyx provides a deep, mirror-like surface that standard lacquer dials cannot replicate. It creates a stark, high-contrast backdrop for the gold hands and the unique factory-set diamond markers at six and nine. This specific configuration is uncommon and adds a layer of distinction to an already elevated watch. The solid gold Jubilee bracelet and case complete the package, offering a significant and luxurious presence on the wrist. This is a Datejust executed to its highest and most confident potential.\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eA Strong And Well-Kept Example\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003eThe condition of this watch is very good. The 18K yellow gold case and Jubilee bracelet show honest wear consistent with age, but retain their strong original lines. Clear hallmarks are visible on the case near the lugs and on the clasp, confirming the originality of the finishing. The black onyx dial is clean, presenting the ideal deep black surface collectors look for in these stone dials. As with every watch we offer, this piece has been verified as mechanically sound and is ready to wear.\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eGold, Bold, And Purposeful\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003eThis watch is for the person who understands the classic appeal of a 36mm Datejust but wants an execution that is undeniably top-tier.
