The present reference 1803 is a very well-preserved and highly attractive representative of the famous model, enhanced by its magnificent intact and vibrant oxblood ‘Lacquered Stella’ dial.
Made in the late 1970s and early 1980s in very small numbers, the colours of lacquer for the dials were mixed by hand and then applied layer after layer until a deep rich gloss coating had built up. Distinguished by an appearance of enamel and referred to by collectors as Stella dials, these timepieces preserved in very well overall condition such as the present example are today much sought after by collectors.

The condition of lots sold in our auctions can vary widely due to factors such as age, previous damage, restoration, repair and wear and tear. Their nature means that they will rarely be in perfect condition. Lots are sold "as is," in the condition they are in at the time of the sale, without any representation or warranty or assumption of liability of any kind as to condition by Christie's or by the seller. Any reference to condition in a catalogue entry or in a condition report will not amount to a full description of condition, and images may not show a lot clearly. Colours and shades may look different in print or on screen to how they look on physical inspection. Condition reports may be available to help you evaluate the condition of a lot. Condition reports are provided free of charge as a convenience to our buyers and are for guidance only. They offer our opinion but they may not refer to all faults, inherent defects, restoration, alteration or adaptation because our staff are not professional restorers or conservators. For that reason they are not an alternative to examining a lot in person or taking your own professional advice. It is your responsibility to ensure that you have requested, received and considered any condition report.
