Stone dials, and frankly any exotic dials have exploded in demand and value in the marketplace. We have sourced a producer of high quality custom stone dials that elevate any Presidential model without adding 10-20K to the price tag. Factory bloodstone dials. are extremely rare. The dark green color, accented with fine splotches of iron ore, hence the name bloodstone, looks fantastic against the yellow gold case. We love the combination.
