The iconic Rolex Reference 6062, “Bao Dai” (Keeper of Greatness), is widely considered by the collecting community and cognoscenti as being amongst the most valuable and desirable Rolexes ever made by the prestigious manufacturer.

This Rolex triple calendar with moonphase in yellow gold is one of only three black dial models known to exist with diamond markers. Of  the three, the Bao Dai is the only example to feature diamond markers at the even hours, making this piece truly unique.  This is further enhanced by imperial provenance, having belonged to His Majesty Bao Dai, the last emperor of Vietnam. The world-famous, diamond-encrusted Rolex 6062 was commissioned directly by Emperor in 1954 in Geneva.
