The Sultan

The reference 1804 represents a very special model reference in the 4-digit Day Date era. The rarest of the rarest dial variants have been configured with the 1804 reference such as Geometric, Guilloche, Stella and special Diamond dials and dials that were exclusively made for the Middle East. The reference stands for a precious metal case with factory set diamond bezel and has been around since the early 1960s.

Here's a very royal example of this reference in Platinum featuring the rare Arabic Hindi numerals on the dial and it couldn't be better with the matching Arabic calendar discs, the absolute dream for Day Date collectors and watches with Arabic provenance. The watch is in beautiful original condition with a strong case, well preserved bracelet and a dial that is not showing any aging to the naked eye.

This watch embodies the top-of-the-range Day Date from this era and was most probably a special order from an influential, wealthy or even Royal client. Here is a chance to buy one of the most important Rolexes made in this era for Middle Eastern clients.
