Rolex Day-Date: Iced Out
There isn’t a whole lot that is more iconic than a high-end Rolex watch such as a Day-Date. But what happens when you smother that watch with diamonds and give it stunning blue accents? You get a really special accessory that is certainly not your father’s watch. This is a timepiece for the bold, trendsetting among us. It has all those elements that have made the Day-Date such a popular line since its first introduction: the day of the week displayed at the top of the watch and the date, which is located at the 3 o’clock marker under a cyclops lens. It is these two features that really make this model of the watch so easy to recognize.
But here, you have something truly special. Literally, every inch of this watch is covered with fine diamonds. The face and bracelet of the watch feature tiny pave-style diamonds, which we will look at more closely in this piece. There are also rectangular-cut diamonds around the bezel of the watch. A bit of blue on the hour markers gives this cool, sparkly piece, a bit of fun color.
The Beauty of the Timepiece
A wristwatch is one of those rare accessories that just defies trends and time. A Day-Date by Rolex is a really good example of a classic watch that still looks just as great today as it did when the line saw its first introduction. There is just something about the classics that really stands the test of time. Trends can come and go quite quickly but it is hard to beat a quintessential accessory like a watch. They look great in pretty much any kind of fashion.
If you are in the cutthroat world of modern business, a well-made high-end wristwatch can give you that professionalism that will help you give a great first impression. Oh, and of course, remain punctual! Even if you aren’t in the world of business, we know that you can appreciate the put-together look something like a great timepiece adds to a look. They pair really well with other accessories and this is one of those rare accessories that combines form and function. It really is hard to go wrong with a high-end wristwatch.

One of the great things about the Day-Date line is that there really is something for everyone. Here, we look at a diamond-studded version of the watch that is suitable for the bolder among us. However, there are really simple versions of the watch that are all metal and that don’t have a ton of embellishments. And, this watch can easily pair with a wide range of other accessories. You can blend different styles of jewelry, different materials, and different pieces together to come up with a look that is 100% yours.
Rolex Timepieces
The brand Rolex is one of the few whose reputation precedes it. When many of us think about high-end luxury, this is a brand that instantly comes to mind. And there are good reasons for this. Rolex watches are among the most cutting-edge and advanced you can find on the market. These are innovative timepieces that are durable, reliable, and well-made. Each and every watch is handmade with Swiss-born craftsmanship, design, and construction. Any watchmaker that makes the proverbial cut at Rolex has to be at the top of their game and at the highest level of precision.
Innovation is a huge part of the Rolex image. Since the inception of the company, designers and engineers have worked closely with people who work and play in a wide range of unique environments. From deep sea divers to race car drivers, Rolex has made a watch for some of the most extreme conditions you can think of. And this technology makes its way into many different watches the company offers. In fact, many of the components that make up these watches are made in-house. The company holds a wide range of patents on elements in its watches that make them truly one-of-a-kind.
The Iconic Day-Date Line
The Day-Date line of watches is one of the most popular that the company offers. It has been a favorite of discerning clients since its first introduction in 1956. It is a quintessential timepiece that combines high-end materials with classic and timeless design. And the internal components of these watches are anything but classic. These are some of the most cutting-edge, precise, and reliable timepieces you can find on the market. But you wouldn’t know that it is a marvel of engineering just by looking at it, you would think it is just a stunning high-end wristwatch.
One of the things that makes the Day-Date line so popular is its clean lines and classic profile. And, there is just so much variety within this line. You will find classic and simple versions, as well as bold versions such as the iced-out version we feature here. Regardless of what version you choose, it will always have the two design elements that not only make it iconic but give it its name. The day of the week will be shown at the top of the watch face above the 12 o’clock marker. The date of the month is displayed at the 3 o’clock market under a cyclops lens. No matter what version of the watch you choose, these elements will always be there.
Iced Out
One of the things that makes the Day-Date line of watches by Rolex is their elegant, classic design and profile. It is a timeless design, it is a bit like the little black dress of watches. No matter what is in style, something classic like this is going to look great. And, there are so many different options to choose from in this line. There are classic versions of the watch. These are all metal pieces that have those classic design elements but don’t have a lot of accents. This plainer version of the watch may be classic, but it certainly isn’t the only one you can find. With the Day-Date line, there really is something for everyone.
Here, we feature a more eye-catching and bold version of this line of watches. Each and every inch of this watch boasts high-grade diamonds. The bulk of the diamonds are tiny pave-style diamonds, which we will look at more closely below. We see rectangular-cut diamonds around the bezel of the watch. This cut maximizes the amount of fire the stones give off. Fire refers to the rainbow of colors that emits from the center of certain diamond cuts when exposed to sunlight.
Pave Diamonds
There are a ton of different diamond cuts, making it one of the most versatile gemstones you can find. This is because diamonds are incredibly hard, but not brittle. These qualities mean that you can cut and shape a diamond into far more shapes than most gemstones that are softer or more brittle. When it comes to diamonds, there are two main qualities that people are looking for: brilliance and fire. Brilliance, or sparkle, is that play of light that causes the glint that so many of us love about diamonds. Fire is the rainbow of hues that emit from the center of certain cuts when in sunlight.
Pave-style diamonds are a cut that is made for maximum brilliance. The word pave is French for paved or pavement. This name is apt because the tiny diamonds create a solid row of sparkly diamonds that is, in a way, reminiscent of the way pavement is laid. These tiny diamonds are able to give off a lot more sparkle than larger brilliant-cut diamonds. And the delicate nature of these stones is a really beautiful sight to behold.
White Gold
White gold is a cool, silvery material that has many of the elements that people love about classic gold, but with a different hue. One of the interesting things about white gold is that its introduction was actually as a cheaper alternative to platinum. A lot of people really like the cool silver look of platinum but the price tag is pretty steep. White gold has a similar hue and quality of color, but it is a lot less expensive than platinum. Gold is one of those materials that humans have coveted since we discovered flakes and small nuggets in the ground. We use them for personal adornment and to adorn really special items or buildings.
Something a lot of people might not be aware of is that gold jewelry is not pure gold. In its pure form, gold is far too soft to be worked into jewelry that can keep its shape. It will lose its shape quickly and become unwearable. So pure gold is blended with a range of other metals to add strength and toughness to the metal. When it comes to white gold, the biggest difference is that more silvery metals are added to the metal blend. This is where it gets its hue.
Versatile Luxury
If you are looking for a bold, eye-catching watch that is a feast for the senses, it really is hard to do better than an iced-out Day-Date by Rolex. It is this really unique blending of classic and timeless design with bold, eye-catching sparkly goodness. This version of the watch is definitely not for the faint of heart. It is a bold piece that will draw the eye of anyone who sees it. You could say this is a watch that wants to be seen. But the thing is, while it is definitely bold and eye-catching, it is also surprisingly versatile.
Obviously, a watch that features as many diamonds as this version of the Day-Date is going to look great with high-end attire. You can easily pair this watch with a gown or a well-fitting suit. However, you can also pair this watch with more casual looks as well. It looks particularly well with sporty or hip-hop-inspired looks, but you really can wear it with everything. And why not add a bit of sparkle and shine to even those most every day of looks? We know that you will love the opportunity to wear this watch at any available moment.
In Closing
There isn’t a much more quintessential accessory than the timepiece. It is one of the few accessories that combine form and function. While most accessories just look nice, the wristwatch will help you remain punctual and, like the Day-Date, we feature here, can even offer more information such as the date and day of the week. This is an accessory that looks great whether you are a man or a woman, whether you dress classically or prefer trendy attire. You can easily pair a watch with other accessories and pretty much any type of fashion you can think of.
The Day-Date by Rolex is one of those iconic lines that defy trends and can stand the test of time. It comes in a huge variety of configurations but retains those elements that make this watch so easy to recognize. Here, we feature an iced-out version of the watch. This Day-Date boasts a ton of pave-style diamonds that encrust the entirety of the watch. These diamonds are meant to maximize the amount of sparkle the stones give off. Additionally, the watch also features rectangular-cut diamonds around the bezel to add a bit of fire to this already stunning piece.
