A minty and particularly stunning example Rolex 18K YG ref 1803 Day Date President circa 1973. This the full size man’s 36mm diameter model with acrylic crystal, 18K YG fluted bezel, and stunning original silver satin so called “Fat Boy” pie pan dial.

The original dial is signed T SWISS T and features applied wide gold baton indexes and lovely lightly patina’d golden luminous dots. With original matching wide tritium lume gilt hands. We find that the silver dial color, in contrast to the much more common champagne color makes a subtle but noteworthy “bright” appearance to this model.

The case of this watch is in minty condition and appears to have been well cared for. With beefy, very lightly polished lugs, sharp and not scratched, worn, or polished fluted bezel. The case back and case back grooves and back of the lugs all are super mint condition. (There is a minute ding on the case back.)

Powered by self winding calibre 1565 movement with non quick set date. The watch was recently serviced is in superb operating condition and is being offered with our usual 1 year warranty of accurate time keeping and operation. The watch is being offered with your choice of fine leather or exotic skin strap for $11750, or with hidden clasp 18K YG Rolex Presidential bracelet for $17,500

NOTE “Fat Boy” The dial indexes and hands are the wider and heftier than typically found  on these models. Most sellers refer to this configuration as “wide boys,” but we (with no disrespect) affectionately refer to them as “Fat Boy” markers.

Your watch purchase includes our signature fine leather watch pouch. Ideal for gift giving, travel and storage, a $65.00 value!
