Rolex Date 1503 - 14k

I have been on the record stating that the first ever "grail" I had when I got into watches was a solid gold Rolex. I was young but can distinctly remember asking for one for Christmas. No toys, no video games, no bike, A Rolex. I wanted a Rolex.  Less about showing wealth and more about commemorating life mile stones. The Rolex brand has always been synonymous with celebration. A tangible item to signify a major event. Its romantic in a way. The memories or stories that go along with the watch more precious than the 14kt yellow gold the watch is cased in.  ABOUT THIS WATCH:  MANUFACTURER: Rolex MODEL: Date REFERENCE: 1503 YEAR: 1979 SERIAL: 63xxxxx CASE: The solid 14kt yellow gold 34mm case is in good shape for its age.
