Description

Produced during the 1980s, the Ref. 6917 reflects a period when Rolex explored the use of natural stone dials in limited quantities. Coral, among the most delicate and difficult stones to work with, was used sparingly due to its fragility and the complexity involved in achieving a flawless cut. Each dial displays its own organic pattern and tonal variation, making every example entirely unique.

Within Rolex’s stone-dial lineage, coral remains one of the least frequently encountered materials, prized for its warmth and jewelry-like character. Combined with the elegance of the Presidential bracelet and preserved with original papers, this example represents a highly collectible expression of vintage Rolex: rare, expressive, and unmistakably refined.
