Our favourite model, the Day Date comes in numerous special dial variants including Stella, Stone and diamond dials. One of the very striking but fairly undervalued dials is the Vignette dial with degrading colors. This particular dial does not only have a standard diamond setting but the 48 diamonds are aligned in a string along the hour markers. The string of diamonds is especially brilliant and eye-catching backed by the dark blue of the vignette dial.
