Such a thing as a two-tone Day-date?
had a quiet laugh to myself when i was in the Sydney LV store at a gentlemen i assume was wearing a fake rolex, a two-tone day date with president bracelet, do legitimate examples even exist or is it a blatant fake and are my suspicions correct, because from my knowledge the two-tone was only available in datejust.

Could have been a Tridor President.

Given the rarity of the model I would find it unlikely but it could indeed be a Tridor.
Did it look like this (this is not my picture)?

There are no Rolex Day-Date two-tone models. (Stainless steel and gold)

Sry to bump up old thread!!
Today I saw a Honda service advisor wearing Two-tone Day-Date. It didn't looked fake and I saw it closely and its like he's been wearing for years, does such a model exists? |

Actually I was opening a new thread and wrote my post and when I saw this, I copied that post and posted here. I thought I edited but looks it didn't come across.
My (edited) point was how rare are the Tridor models? As the one I saw was with light golden dial day date and two tone. |

The watches being discussed could possibly be Tudors.
Tudor Date+Day models have evolved away from the Rolex look but the older, two-tone, Tudor Date+Day watches have a cyclops date magnifier, a YG fluted bezel, and a YG two-tone plated jubilee bracelet or a YG two-tone plated oyster bracelet. |
