Description: Great 1803 Day-Date with a rare No Lume dial.
The case is really great. Not unpolished, but great in terms of proportions and sharpness. Feel free to check out the pictures. Full lugs, wonderfully sharp edges and a wonderful matte finish on the top of the case. Anyone who reads my texts diligently knows that with an 1803 there should always be a gap between the bezel and the crown, where you can see the case which is exactly like that here and testifies to the quality of the watch.
The bezel is also great. They are wonderfully sharp and show only minor signs of wear.
The dial is a small highlight. It is a rare NO LUME dial, therefore completely without lume material. It is also the variant with Arabic numerals every quarter of an hour. The condition is excellent. No damage to the sunray-cut and a clear print.
The hands are also worth mentioning. Matching the dial, these are the rare NO LUME hands, i.e. the hands also have no lume.
This fine 1803 Day-Date comes on a great leather strap in a gray-beige tone and with an original Rolex pin buckle (gold-plated).
Conclusion: Great vintage day-date with charm and a rare dial.
