This reference 1803 Rolex Day-Date is a very rare example to appear on the market. Very seldomly seen, it is rare for a gold Khanjar to be applied to the dial rather than stamped at 6 o’clock.


Furthermore, the case number is also repeated on the inside of the case back which has also been stamped with RWC LTD together with English hallmarks. The bracelet is original and stamped for the third quarter of 1972 and the watch is in very crisp and orginal condition.
