Rolex’s Day-Date is one of the most recognizable wristwatches today, and over the course of its almost 70-year history has been realized in many different ways. Originally intended as Rolex’s “luxury proposition”, and for this reason originally available exclusively in precious metal with few prototypes in steel known, it has now become the most versatile watch in Rolex’s line-up. The Reference 1803 is probably the most popular reference of this generation of Day-Date watches: the present timepiece is an exceedingly gorgeous example of white-gold Day-Date, with the very simple but always pleasant silvered dial. Preserved in notable condition, the white-gold case is still nice, it overflows onto the argentè dial and is resumed by the hands that shine on the silvered dial. A rare gem for the completionism-inclined collector.
