I'm normally not a big leather strap fan but on that watch it looks great. The black and gold just work.

Thanks for the words, I couldn't believe my luck when he pulled the boxes & paperwork.....I only learnt the provenance in the store.

Hi Daniel superb full set of day date you have there with all documents. This is the dream set. I remember I have day date set like yours (same inner and outer box) too. And if I recalled correctly there is also black color dot sticker on outer box which indicate that it is black dial day date.

This is my black day date

Gorgeous! Mine doesn't have a black dot but a white/cream color dot? My outer box has the "1803" sticker as well, :)

A stunning case w that grey dial. I do agree that DDates are still a tad undervalued compared to the sport counterparts. I too, have started to hunt for one. Enjoy your find!
