This Submariner Date presents a distinctive combination of a 40 mm yellow-gold case, a blue rotating bezel and a gray Serti dial set with diamond hour markers. The precious-metal construction gives the watch a substantial presence, while the contrasting dial and bezel create a carefully balanced visual profile.
The automatic movement provides mechanical timekeeping with a practical date display, while the sapphire crystal protects the dial. The screw-down architecture and substantial water resistance retain the functional character associated with the Submariner line.
