Rolex Day-Date 40 Platinum “Middle East Edition” (Ice Blue Arabic Dial)

Designed for the ultimate connoisseur of rare horology and regional heritage, this Rolex Day-Date 40 “Middle East Edition” pairs an elite layout with Rolex’s most exclusive color palette. The striking ice blue dial—a prestigious finish strictly reserved for Rolex’s solid platinum models—serves as the canvas for beautifully contrasting dark blue Eastern Arabic (Arabic-Indic) numerals and matching hands.

Forged from solid, high-polished 950 platinum, the 40mm Oyster case is paired with a matching platinum fluted bezel, catching and playing with regional lighting conditions effortlessly. The calendar complication is fully integrated into the regional design, displaying the day of the week at 12 o’clock and the date at 3 o’clock entirely in Arabic script. Rounded out by the iconic President bracelet, this highly elusive masterpiece commands unparalleled wrist presence.
