Rolex started producing Stella dials in the early 1970's and are lacquered dials mainly made in vibrant colors. They have a similar finishing to Enamel dials and are usually highly glossy. The colors of Stella dials varied with production year but as the lacquer for each dial was mixed separately, each dial has kind of a unique color. The current example offered is a Rolex Day Date1803 with a gorgeous glossy Green Stella dial. The Green Stella in my opinion is one of the most wearable and versatile color, especially for men and especially in the Middle East as Green is a special color embedded in the culture. The watch in overall is in a very attractive condition and interesting not only for collectors but also someone who is looking for something that stands out.
