Descrizione dettagliata lotto
An extremely rare and attractive timepiece, the present Rolex reference 1803 showcases Rolex's experimentalism and adaptability. A primordial region for fine watchmaking, the Middle East has encouraged manufacturers over the years to create special-order timepieces for royal families or wristwatches with characteristics tailored to the region.
The present timepiece features a magnificent golden dial with Eastern Arabic numerals and Arabic day - made especially for the Middle East for a short period in the 1960s and '70s. Among the rarest and most coveted, such dials enhance the collectible importance of the timepiece. When found in such remarkable overall condition, these rare timepieces are considered by many as trophies in any important Day-Date collection
Reference 1803
In production from 1959 to 1977, reference 1803 can be considered the most classical of all Day-Date references: its case strikes the perfect balance between sporty and elegant, and the ribbed bezel has grown to become the bezel collectors think of when imagining a Day-Date. It is the chef d’oeuvre against which all Day-Date models are weighted.
