Details
Description
The Rolex Day-Date Reference 1803 with the Oxblood Stella dial is a standout among vintage watches from the late 1960s and 70s. The Stella series was Rolex’s bold departure from its traditionally conservative aesthetic, featuring dials coated in thick, multi-layered lacquer in striking colors. The oxblood version, with its deep, rich red tone, is especially admired because it strikes a balance between vibrancy and timeless elegance.
Condition Report
The dial is nice and intact without any cracks. The case is in very good overall condition with minor surface wear. The movement is running at the time of cataloging, however, it was not tested for the accuracy of time or duration of the power reserve and may need service at the buyer's discretion. Please note that Sotheby's does not guarantee the future working of the movement.
