Hi, Guys:

come across this DD with nice black dial and quarter marker, need some advice before I... (you know)

* dial original?
* movement correct?

thks for helping.

nice looking! no expert though, you'd have to wait for them to show up.

you didnt find this in malaysia did you? there aren't any good vintage shops here to my knowledge...

A gold watch with a black dial and black strap is the perfect combination from a visual perspective. I have never seen that combo on a Rolex like yours.

By the way, what's a quarter marker?

Apart from a Stella that would be my favourite DD. Very beautiful

Congrats :)

Very nice , just looked at that one yesterday on eBay, looks pretty nice!

Here's another gold/black dial/black strap combo (mine):

I'm no expert, but that Day-Date looks swell.

Yes, as far as I can tell. Or at least a tritium service dial. What do you think?

Cortez y Ramon · 22 June 2011, 03:12 AM

All original

would be preferable to also see the case serial

Andy B · 22 June 2011, 04:38 AM

Very Very Nice.
It all looks OK to me.
The lume looks a bit green to me though, I think a service dial maybe?

How much is it, if you don't mind me asking?

adam78 · 22 June 2011, 05:29 AM

Buy-it-now is $4100 USD, OBO.

it's important, ask for pics of the serial numbers

pic of serial/model number

again, the only thing bothering me is 'wired' payment

Cortez y Ramon · 22 June 2011, 07:34 PM

Perfect, the case it's ok

Notice how the whole case is brushed even the space between the lugs that should be shinny. Case is worn. I have a far better 1803 in my case for $3350. notice the 10 o'clock lug. Nearly refinished even with the level of metal between the lugs.
