The Rolex Day-Date is one of the oldest and most prestigious models of the Swiss watch manufacturer. Introduced in 1956, the Rolex Day-Date was a technical sensation. It was the first wristwatch to show both the date and the day of the week on the dial. The Rolex Day-Date is also called "The President Watch" as it was worn by the US Presidents Franklin D. Roosevelt and John F. Kennedy.
Here we offer a fantastic example of the Rolex Oyster Perpetual Day-Date 1803 in 18ct yellow gold case from 1967. The elegant silver step dial has a date window at 3 o'clock and the weekday display in Italian at 12 o'clock. Every single lume dot is fully intact and has a tasty creamy color. The yellow gold case is in a honest condition with minimal signs of usage. In our opinion, the case has remained unpolished.
The automatic movement of caliber 1556 looks absolutely untouched. The watch has been checked and runs extremely accurate. The bracelet is another highlight of this offer. It's the super-rare yellow gold Oyster bracelet. Even the original spring bars are included. The Rolex clasp is signed 3/68 (first quarter of 1968).
Hardly any watch looks as elegant on the wrist as the classic Rolex Day-Date. Furthermore, this undisputed watch icon is today considered a stable investment. And this 50-year-old Day-Date is probably one of the best examples on the vintage market.
