WHAT IS SPECIAL
This unique 1980s Rolex Day-Date Ref. 18178 is in a league of its own. While modern Rainbows rely entirely on colored sapphires, this vintage grail gets its "Christmas" bezel from real baguette-cut rubies, sapphires, and emeralds. And we all know emeralds are almost never seen on modern Rolex because of how fragile it is to cut and how precious they are.
Add in ruby hour markers and a diamond flow from dial to bracelet, and you’re looking at pure 80s experimental genius. While you can find at least 10 or 20 Rainbow Daytonas at any given time, unique gemset Rolex are much harder to track down and thus more fun to collect.
