Rolex Day-Date 1803 Silver Dial with Cigarette Hands
SOLD
The Inside Story
We are delighted to offer this classic Day-Date, with a lovely silver dial and so-called ‘cigarette’ hands, a rare hand set that was only used in the mid-1960s on Day-Dates and are named after cigarette speed boats. On the chosen leather strap, we think this Day-Date is both elegant and classy and it's ready for your wrist!
The case is thick and even with nice lugs and a well-defined bezel. The silver soleil-finish pie-pan dial is in lovely condition with great looking wedge-style hour markers and the cigarette hands. The watch has an English language day disc. This cool and bold looking Day-Date will come on the picture Bulang and Sons leather strap. The slow-set movement has been fully serviced by our watchmaker.
This is a great and versatile watch that you can enjoy experimenting with on different straps. Please get in touch and we can do a deal!

Service & Warranty
Our Service
Each vintage timepiece is individually selected and carefully inspected by our team of experts. After we buy a watch it is mechanically inspected and fully checked by our watchmaker. If necessary, the movement will be fully serviced and tested to ensure it is running to our exacting standards.
We will always describe the watch as fully as we can in our sales texts. Our zoomable images are of the highest possible quality and form an important part of each watch’s description. We will never hide or cover up any element of any watch we sell.
Key to our unparalleled service is Fedex Priority shipping, fully insured. Once you have received your watch, we encourage you to inspect it thoroughly. If you are not 100% satisfied, please let us know. We offer a 14 days return policy. Simply return the watch to get a full refund of the original purchase price.
Our Warranty
We offer a one-year warranty on the mechanical function of the watch, starting from the day of purchase. We do not guarantee the waterproof nature of any (vintage) watch, unless expressly made in writing. Therefore, our warranty will not cover any damage done to the case and/or movement by water or moisture entering the watch. Our warranty does not apply to accidental damage or mishandling of your watch and does not extend to the bracelet, case parts (including pushers, winding stem, crown and bezel), watch glass, dial and hands.
