1979 1st OWNER ROLEX 18K YELLOW GOLD OYSTERQUARTZ DAY DATE BOX PAPERS

SOLD

Rare and beautiful 1st owner Rolex 18K solid yellow Gold Oysterquartz Day Date, reference 19018, with original box and punched papers. Very nice original thick case showing normal use, retaining thick lugs. All model, serial # and gold stamps are clear and sharp. The original black dial is exceptional with all tritium indexes present. The original 18k yellow gold bracelet is in very good condition only showing mild stretch. 22 links in total. Strangely, one digit was incorrectly stamped on the Certificate, as a “6” instead of a “0”. Considering Official Retailers had their own stamping machine, it must have been an inadvertent mistake by the seller in the moment of the sale, making this example rather unique.
