Vintage Rolex Day-Date
The original Rolex Day-Date was released in 1956, being the first ever wristwatch to feature both the date and day written out in full on the dial. The Day-Date is known for the ‘president’ bracelet, a combination between the Oyster-bracelet and the Jubilee-bracelet. The first ever vintage Rolex Day-Date was released in solid 18-karat yellow gold, and later models featured white gold, rose gold or even platinum.

Worn by many presidents, actors and other famous people, the Rolex Day-Date is a true icon. The vintage pieces like the reference 6612 or the 1803 are made of solid yellow gold, measure 36mm and feature the well-known president’s bracelet. These pieces tend to go up in value, since prices started skyrocketing all the way up to €30.000 or more for a vintage Day-Date in 36mm. The ‘Noir’ dial in a vintage state even sells for €50.000 and over.
