Rolex Day-Date 1803 "Silver Sunburst"

US$0.00
SOLD

Description

This is the Rolex Day-Date 1803. Within the Rolex line, the Day-Date is often the model that is associated with the highest level of prestige. Introduced in 1956, it was the first timepiece to display both the day and the date on the dial. The nickname, “The President”, was derived from this timepiece being gifted to then President Dwight Eisenhower. A lesser known fact, however, is that the nickname actually refers to the bracelet that accompanies the watch rather than the entire timepiece itself. Traditionally associated with prestige, vintage Day-Dates have recently increased drastically in demand with the understanding that condition and rarity is key. This particular variant has a silver sunburst dial accompanied by the yellow gold President bracelet.

Condition

This Rolex Day-Date 1803 is in very good vintage condition. The seemingly unpolished case is sharp with thick and even lugs. There are some flea bites on the plexiglass from prior wear but they remain fairly insignificant. The dial is clean with full lume plots and the serial and reference are still very visible between the lugs. The previously restored bracelet is mint and tight with no stretch and has 21 links. The day wheel is in Spanish.
