Daydate dial

I stumbled across this picture on Instagram this morning.

Never seen this before so I'm assuming it's aftermarket?

What's people's opinions?

I think it looks brilliant!

It's a great looking dial and is actually a genuine Rolex dial to boot! I'm a big fan of stone/semi-precious stone dials.

Phillips sold a similar piece in their Day-Date auction last year: https://www.phillips.com/detail/ROLEX/CH080115/4

OEM Marble Dial. Part of the 70's-90's stone dial collection. I am a big fan of the stone dials. Have the malachite and lapis...well had the malachite...my wife stole it��
