Rolex’s sought after ‘Stella’ dials were produced from the 1960s to the 1990s and were fitted in cases made of yellow gold, pink gold, white gold or platinum. Since the firm ceased their production, these colorful lacquered Stella dials have now achieved cult status amongst collectors and purists.
The present Day-Date, reference 1803, features a baby pink 'Stella’ dial, which looks translucent yet vibrant at the same time. While reference 1803 was fitted with a plethora of dials, watches fitted with 'Stella' dials are among the most sought-after due to their looks and exclusivity. Compared to other colors, baby pink dials are very rare, further enhancing the exclusivity of this watch.
The case is preserved in superb condition, and still retains a strong hallmark on the underside of the bottom right lug. This watch is powered by the automatic caliber 1556 movement, which features a hacking mechanism that allows precise time-setting.
When setting your eyes on the “Just Married” reference 1803 with its pale pink dial prominently displayed in Pucci Papaleo’s “Day-Date, The Presidential Rolex” one might reminisce about the day their beautiful, blushing bride walked down the aisle with elegance and poise.
