This all-original Rolex Day-Date reference 1803, dating to approximately 1970 (3.1M serial), presents in very good vintage condition and offers a unique combination of rarity and preservation. The solid 18k yellow gold case retains its original proportions with thick, sharp lugs, showing signs of past refinement while maintaining crisp lines. Its matching fluted bezel is sharp and complements the case beautifully. What truly sets this piece apart is its highly sought-after black matte dial — an uncommon variant distinguished by the absence of a hyphen between “Day Date,” adding an intriguing detail for collectors. The dial remains in outstanding condition with all tritium lume plots intact and evenly matched hands. The watch is powered by its original automatic movement, fully serviced by a professional watchmaker in July 2025, and pressure tested to 3ATM (30m). All case engravings remain clear and legible. It is fitted with a new custom handmade grey leather strap (20/16mm) paired with a gold-plated Rolex pin buckle for a classic yet versatile finish. A compelling and rare interpretation of the iconic President line — this reference 1803 embodies Rolex’s technical strength and design heritage in equal measure. **Reference:** 1803 **Size:** 36mm **Year:** 1970 🏞️ [Album](https://imgur.com/a/c8y6hmH) ☑️ [Timestamp](https://imgur.com/a/uTMJkxz) 📜 Includes: Custom [travel pouch](https://bogossia.com/products/travel-carrying-case) ($50+ value) 💵 Price: $9,250 + FREE overnight shipping with FedEx fully insured. 🔥 Follow us on [Instagram](https://www.instagram.com/bogossiajewelers) 📍 Location: New York 🔒 Authenticity: 100% guaranteed, buy with confidence.
