The “Stella” dial is Rolex in its most delightful and playful form. Introduced in the 1970’s through the 1980’s, it allowed the brand to attract a completely different clientele.
The pictured reference 18388 is enhanced with brilliant diamonds that captivate its bezel, lugs and dial. Dials fitted with diamond hour markers require Rolex to use special made hands that sit above the hour markers to not interfere with perfect time keeping. The most important feature, however is the unusually rare yellow “Stella” dial that essentially make this
#RolexDayDate potentially unique in its configuration. These yellow dials have been given the nickname “Yellow Cab” and in recent years only a handful have ever appeared on the market.
