A fantastic 1960 Rolex Oyster Perpetual Day-Date in 18k yellow gold, reference 1803, featuring an ultra rare no lume "Kit Kat" gold dial with matching no lume sword hands.
What sets this piece apart is its ultra-rare no lume early “Kit Kat” gold dial—named for its distinctive, segmented hour markers that resemble the iconic chocolate bar—paired with elegant, matching gold sword hands. Devoid of luminous material, the dial presents a clean, refined aesthetic that enhances its vintage charm. As part of the revered Day-Date lineage, this timepiece not only showcases Rolex’s technical mastery but also stands as a bold statement of timeless sophistication and rarity. The use of 18k yellow gold added to their discreet opulence, blending precious metal craftsmanship with timeless simplicity. Powered by early automatic Day-Date calibers like the 1555, these pieces not only reflected Rolex’s dedication to quality but also its sensitivity to international markets. Today, these no-lume yellow gold Day-Dates are prized by collectors for their rarity, purity of design, and historical significance.
