Lot Essay

In production from 1959 to 1977, reference 1803 can be considered the most classical of all Day-Date references: its case strikes the perfect balance between sporty and elegant, and the ribbed bezel has grown to become the bezel collectors think of when imagining a Day-Date. It is the chef d’oeuvre against which all Day-Date models are weighted.
