Think I struck lucky with my piece perhaps my pics doesn't do it justice but in the light there's like a diamond formation [ or even a star of david ] of the reflective fractions of the stone with the points at the 12 - 3 - 6 - 9 indices

I seen some real odd [to my eye] meteorite dial formations

each one being unique no 2 cut the same

Steve...I went with a friend of mine today to Bond Street, London, as he wanted to try one of those on. It is a truly breathtaking piece!

I was thinking of a WG Daydate on Oyster for myself, but having tried on yours but with the standard silver dial, I am hooked!! Now just need to auction off a limb or two

worktolivelife · 8 April 2007, 02:34 AM

LOL! The number of Rolex"s you've had I'm surprised your still walking if thats the case

steve

AdamB · 8 April 2007, 02:39 AM

Good point! (Sent you a PM)

Blue Bull · 8 April 2007, 03:32 AM

Amazing watch.. !!

I say .. would you be so terribly kind,as to let us know,as to the MSRP in the UK,on that,ol' chap ? We down here in the Colonies,would dearly like to know,you know ... har-har-har !!

No,really ,whats the MSRP on the steel bracelet and on the leather strap ?

Welshwatchman · 8 April 2007, 03:55 AM

What a stunning watch !

I am sort of glad I have never seen one (Meteorite dial) in the flesh. Far too much temptation for my good.

Well not for me but I do like the red hands,and the Romans.
Great picture but not a fan of the modern Daytona.

Steve, you bastid, stop posting pics of the most beautiful and stunning inanimate object on planet earth!!

I just have to win Powerball and one of those babies will surely adorn my wrist - Chrono or no Chrono; Date or no date.....who cares? That has got to be the BEST dial and RED hands combo from Rolex.....ever!!

You are 100% right, JJ.

Very nice thanks for showing this beautiful watch.

If you want to satisfy the urge without breaking the bank, you can buy polished, etched slices of meteorites for relatively small sums of money. They aren't really that rare and there are many sellers on line. Here's one:
