Stealth Wealth
In the universe of Day Dates we strive to find the most lavish, extravagant, colorful and glamorous versions studded with diamonds, bearing colorful and exotic dials and rare bracelets but there are also Day Dates that would stand out because of their sheer simplicity. This reference 1802 in platinum is such a candidate breathing the 'Stealth Wealth' point of view. The watch is configured in a beautiful monochrome way with its silver no lume dial and hands. For an even more sleek look we have installed an original no cyclopes plexi. Maybe the most toned down Day Date you will ever see and considering it is in platinum, makes this a very timeless and sophisticated heavy hitter.

Brief History
Rolex Day-Date
Arguably one of the most iconic watches ever made, the Day-Date aka the Rolex President was introduced in 1956 and was the first to feature both the day and date in dedicated windows on the dial.
The Day-Date is the top model in the Rolex line-up and comes in an array of configurations with rare and special dials and case decorations. It has only ever been made in precious metals with Automatic movements and historically with an elegant diameter of 36mm - the perfect size for an iconic dress watch.
