Diameter;Signed: Case, dial, movement and bracelet signed;Literature: The present watch is proudly displayed in Day-Date, The Presidential Rolex by Pucci Papaleo, page 178 and 179.;Catalogue Essay;Throughout the 1970s and 1980s, Rolex channeled their resources in creating their very own in-house quartz movements, one of them being the calibre 5055. Known as the 'OysterQuartz', this calibre functioned similarly and accurately as any automatic Day-Date movement, such as the 1556. While the movement was discontinued in 2001, this has only increased the rarity and collectibility of the OysterQuartz Day-Date.;Like the automatic Day-Date, the OysterQuartz interpretation was fitted with a myriad of designs, ranging from those featuring gem-set bezels and a variety of dial materials.;This particular OysterQuartz is an outstanding example due to a number of reasons. Firstly, the watch features a diamond-set "Decor Pyramide" bezel, which is incredibly rare. The "Pyramide" motif is repeated on the centre links of the bracelet, and again evoked through the watch numerals, aptly inspiring its name "Egyptian".;Secondly, the watch is presented to us in astounding condition. It retains factory finishes, including the green sticker to the case back. The dial has furthermore been lovingly kept in impeccable condition, with all luminous intact and perfectly round.;The watch is furthermore prominently displayed in Day-Date, The Presidential Rolex by Pucci Papaleo, proudly presenting its allure for the horological community's viewing pleasure and appreciation.
