Daytona 18K Rose Gold Chocolate dial

Shopping for a rose gold Daytona on 18K rose gold bracelet. Came across the chocolate dial Rose Gold Daytona on Ebay. However local jeweller claimed the chocolate dial is only available on a leather band and was never offered in 18K Rose gold bracelet. Said the internet vendor was selling a modified watch or a counterfeit watch. Who's right? Browsing through the latest Rolex on line catalogue only shows the chocolate dial on leather band.

Originally, leather strap was with chocolate and ivory dials only, and now they do offer 4 dials. The combination you post is real and available from Rolex. It was not an option when the leather strap watch was released, but it is now.

It can be ordered from the factory that way. DavidSW has had one for sale EXACTLY in that configuration.........straight from the AD with 'your name' added to the warranty card.
