Hello!

This is Kaneko from Commit Ginza.
Today, I'd like to introduce a recommended vintage Day-Date model!

Rolex Day-Date All Tritium
Ref.1803/8 Serial.32 (manufactured around 1973)
Cal.1556 FF53/8385
Accessories: Watch only
COMING SOON!!

 

The vintage Day-Date "Ref.1803" was manufactured from the 1959s to the late 1970s.

It is a popular model that is attractive for its comfortable fit and the unique charm of a vintage model.

While 4-digit Day-Dates have become quite rare to find recently,
the individual we are introducing today is a highly recommended piece in particularly good condition!

If you are looking for one, please take a look.

The dial is a champagne dial, a classic color for dress watches.  

It's a beautiful, understated champagne dial without any strange glitter, making it comfortable on the wrist and easy to wear.

A characteristic of 4-digit Day-Dates is the stepped outer edge of the dial, 
which makes the center of the dial appear to float.

The stepped dial on the outer edge, which exudes a vintage atmosphere, is in excellent condition for a watch manufactured around 1973.

It's in superb condition even under a loupe!
The luminous material on the indexes is also in perfect condition with no missing parts.

The lume is all tritium. The hand lume is also in good condition!

The condition shows some scuffs and small scratches from use,
but it's in remarkably good condition for a vintage Day-Date.

As you can see, the middle case is in good condition, making for a very good impression!

The lugs are sharp.
The impression of the hairline finish is also excellent!

The bezel's edge lines are also clearly defined.

The President bracelet with its distinctive protruding crown logo and single buckle, correct for the era, is also in good condition!!

The bracelet has a natural stretch, but the condition is good!
There are also plenty of links!

It looks great! !
Overall, it's a rare 4-digit Day-Date in superb condition!

Finally, a wrist shot!!
The calm and pleasant champagne dial is attractive!
If you are looking for a vintage Day-Date in good condition, you should definitely check this out!

Vintage Day-Date "Ref.1803 / '73 All Tritium" This recommended Day-Date boasts excellent condition in its dial, lume, and case!
It is surprisingly rare to find such a well-preserved vintage Day-Date!
It is scheduled to go on sale after an overhaul at our affiliated workshop!
Customers looking for a vintage Day-Date, please consider it!
