1802 Ghost
The watch offered is a beautiful and rare 1802 Day Date in yellow gold with smooth bezel. The majority of 4 digit references bear fluted bezels among some Bark and Moire bezels and some are diamond set. The smooth bezel causes a very sleek and elegant look, especially when paired with a Rivited Oyster bracelet. The dial is a Taupe color dial with matte finish and white print. The white print, in some light environments disappears, giving a Ghost look as if there is no print on the dial. This is becoming more and more popular. The watch is beautiful and in great condition, a configuration you wont come across very soon again.
