Description
British Racing Green - Stella dials are known to have been produced in the 1970s and 1980s but very few know that there was a later batch ranging into the Double Quick era after 1989. These have appeared mainly in the Serial range S and W dating them to 1993-1995. This later batch is known to have a more flat finishing and have only been produced in very few colors. One of them is the British Racing green, a very dark green color when compared to the earlier produced green Stellas. Here is a super crisp 18248 Day Date bearing such a British Green Stella dial. The best word to describe the condition of this dial is flawless. The dial is free of any sort of aging, bubbles, scratches, hairlines or tool marks and bears original tritium lumes with matching hands. The gilt graphics enhance the aesthetics of this very royal looking color. The case and bracelet of this 18248 are in mint and possibly unpolished condition showing factory finishing. The gold has beautifully aged to a rosy color giving this watch a super warm character. The British racing Green Stella is a very rare and prominent color and we are happy to offer it here in astonishing condition.
