The quintessential Oyster-cased dress watch, the Day-Date was first introduced in 1956 and quickly became one of the most popular luxury watches in the world. This watch is a perfect expression of elegant style, while never sacrifice usability or reliability.
Our Reference (1803 Fluted) is an update to the 6500 and was introduced in 1959. Early 1800 models had the very rare cal. 1556. Our unpolished reference is even more rare because of the pie pan dial with stick indexes in flawless condition and rare 18k rose gold case.
