The present example of reference 18238 is one of the most rare and unusual iterations of the model. The presence of the ineffable lapis dial would already be enough to make the present piece more than coveted, but it furthermore features extremely unusual indexes: Arabic numerals at 6 and 9 each set with a brilliant-cut diamond. This reference is known with a numbers of dial configuration, with baton indexes on silvered dial appearing to be one of the - if not the - most common. Other dial examples are diamond-set baton indexes and radial Roman numerals, and the dial itself is known as standard silvered, marble, wood, coral… The present configuration, however, is without a doubt one of the most difficult to come by. The rarity and exceptionality of this dial are furthermore highlighted by the mention of the exact style on the original Warranty, confirming its factory origin. Last, but not least, not only this is a highly collectible and attractive timepiece, but it is furthermore offered in excellent condition - still bearing the green Rolex sticker to the back - and complete of its original box and papers.
