Rolex Ref. 1803
Manufacturer: Rolex Year: circa 1972 Reference No: 1803 Movement No: DD162'652 Case No: 3'031'490 Model Name: Day-Date Material: 18k yellow gold Calibre: Automatic, cal. 1556, 26 jewels Bracelet/Strap: 18k yellow gold Rolex Jubilee bracelet, 190 mm. max. lenght Clasp/Buckle: 18k yellow gold Rolex folding deployant clasp stamped 3.72 Dimensions: 36 mm. Diameter Signed: Case, dial, movement and bracelet signed Accessories: Accompanied by Rolex fitted box, punched Attestation de Chronomètre Officiel, punched guarantee and product literature. Catalogue Essay Rolex is a brand better known for its tool watches, yet the Day-Date with “Stella” dial is a vibrant and playful homage to the brand’s creativity and "out of the box" thinking. The nickname “Stella”, Latin for “star”, was given due to the spectacular multi-layered lacquer coated dials combined with vibrant and rich colors that create an impressive, reflective surface that glistens. Rolex’s sought after "Stella" dials were produced from the 1960s to the 1990s and were fitted in cases made of yellow gold, pink gold, white gold or platinum. Since the firm ceased their production, these colorful lacquered "Stella" dials have now achieved cult status amongst collectors and purists. The present Day-Date, reference 1803, features a flamboyant coral 'Stella’ dial, providing an arresting contrast with the yellow gold case. Preserved in superb condition, the present watch will appeal to the non-conformist collector on a hunt for exclusive timepieces. Read More
