Lot Essay

The present reference 1803 is an extremely well-preserved representative of the famous model and undoubtedly one of the most beautiful and desirable of all the Rolex Stella. The watch is enhanced by its magnificent intact and vibrant yellow coloured ‘Lacquered Stella’ dial enriched with 8 round cut diamonds indexes and 2 baguette-cut diamonds traditionally placed at 6 and 9 o’clock. Adding rarity, the present specimen is furthermore offered with its original Certificate of Guarantee stamped by the retailer Guillerro Tello R. of Samborns Madero.

The lacquer dial of the present watch is of the most vivid shade of yellow that can be imagined comparable to Chinese “Imperial Yellow”. Furthermore, yellow is considered the most beautiful, prestigious and highly prized colour amongst stella dials of which no two are the same shade.
