Respond to this message Return to Index Original Message THREE Rare 18K Gold Rolex Models. DD 1802 White !! 1514 Date & 1026 OP. (Login IgorDR) VRF Member Posted Apr 19, 2012 10:21 AM Please view the pictures of the 3 models offered here and search the Internet to find any others like these offered for sale. I wish you luck VERY RARE !! Rolex Day Date 1802 WHITE Gold. $20,800 Antiquorum auction of the 1802 in White Gold fetched a price of $20,800. Here is what they said about this model: "While usually found with a reeded bezel bearing the reference 1803, this model has the smooth bezel characteristic of reference 1802. Made in extremely small numbers, Antiquorum has never sold a white gold 1802 and has sold a total of only 5 examples in various metals in the past 15 years. Maintained in immaculate condition, still with its original bracelet dated 1971, and recently overhauled by Rolex, it is sure to please Day-Date collectors." My watch is in a much better condition than one auctioned off at Antiquorum. This according to a few here who looked at the one at Antiquorum. Until very recently if you searched the Internet for 1802 in white gold for sale, you would only come across mine Model 1802 designates a Day Date with a plain smooth bezel while 1803 one with fluted bezel. 1803 in white gold with accompanying bracelet runs somewhere around $10,000. So you may think why should you spend more than twice as much for an 1802 in white gold? Rarity !!!!!! Antiquorum stated that they never had an 1802 in white gold offered for sale !!! Mine shown here has a beautiful original Rolex pie pan dial. Diamond markers added post factory issue. If you desire a plain Day Date dial of this vintage without the diamonds they are still available. This Rolex was manufactured in 1968. Rolex cal. 1556 movement with hacking. Will fit 7.5 inch wrist comfortably. The watch is in good working and cosmetic condition. We will have the watch serviced again prior to shipping. I believe this model in white gold is even less common than one in platinum, Antiquorum agrees with me !!! As to the value of precious ,metal in platinum or 18K white gold model, the difference is only about $700 or so in favor of platinum model. If you search past Antiquorum, Christies or Sothebys auctions you will find just one other !! ********************************************************************************************************************************** Below Rare 18K Gold Rolex 1026 >>> $5000 Below very RARE Rolex model #1026 in 18K yellow gold.
