1709008 Rolex Day-Date 1803 - Argente "Pie Pan" Dial - Factory Diamonds Indexes - Full Set

ROLEX DAY-DATE 1803 The Rolex Day-Date made its first appearance at the Basel Fair in 1956 (the patent, however, was registered some time earlier, on July 23, 1955), immediately positioning itself at the top of the range in terms of price and elegance, previously represented by the Datejust. Its hallmark feature is the simultaneous display of both the date and the day, a complication that allows it to compete on equal footing with models from the most prestigious watchmaking houses, while also boasting waterproofing (50m – 165ft) ensured by the famous Oyster case. It is exclusively available in 18kt gold or the rarer platinum, with stainless steel excluded to emphasize its prestige and elegance. Additionally, the option of having diamond-set dials and bezels is offered. From the start, the Rolex Day-Date positioned itself at the top of the range and quickly set off to become a best-seller for the brand. Quoting a well-known Rolex advertisement, "Men Who Guide the Destinies of the World Wear Rolex Watches." This statement resonates profoundly with the Rolex Day-Date, often hailed as "The President." This example has been meticulously manufactured from 18k white gold, featuring the iconic 'President' bracelet. Its argentè dial with diamond hour markers adds a captivating touch to its elegance. Dating back to 1975, this watch comes with its original warranty and is impeccably preserved.
