Day-Date Passion
As was recently mentioned, the iconic Day-Date is the essence of Rolex. Here's an example that stirs my heart each time hold her. Rarity x3 and all original Rolex: A 50 year old and super rare black underline stella.
Not only is the flawless dial to die for, the 1963 case is another rarity being an original smooth bezel 1802. To top off this perfect trifecta, this sweetheart has the original 1963 folding clasp brick bracelet which is as mint and nos condition as the rest of the piece.
Although I love my Daytonas, my gilts, and my tropicals, this is one piece that easily ranks as one of my absolute rarest. Here's a few quick photos, enjoy

Thank you for your kind comments Tim
This being a 50 year old timepiece that still retains an elegance of pure class, no wonder why they call this the President
A good time and place to share . . .
. . . my recent Day-Date story. While Uncle George was visiting from overseas last month, his '77 ref 1803, yellow gold on bracelet, went 'south'. As the watch guy in the family, I took it to my watchmaker, who diagnosed a faulty barrel arbor, and had it ...
