Unlike a conventional polished or fluted surface, the bark pattern can gradually lose its definition through decades of wear and repeated polishing. Examples retaining a strong, clearly defined texture on both the bezel and bracelet are therefore particularly desirable.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBrand: Rolex\u003cbr\u003eModel: Day-Date\u003cbr\u003eReference: 1807 \u003cbr\u003eYear of manufacture: 1967\u003cbr\u003eSerial number: \u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e1,590,139\u003cbr\u003eMaterial: 18k Gold\u003cbr\u003eDimensions: 36mm\u003cbr\u003eCrystal material: Sapphire\u003cbr\u003eLuminous material: Tritium\u003cbr\u003eCaliber: 3035\u003cbr\u003eType of movement: Automatic\u003cbr\u003eBracelet size: 18cm\u003cbr\u003eBox\/Papers: No\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eComments:  watch was serviced by \"RSC\" Rolex service Center in 2023 and retains its service card.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"rvmusa","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54370436251958,"sku":null,"price":17850.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0694\/8628\/1014\/files\/07_ROLEX_DayDateBark_2023_1807_01_d760ad04-6bfe-4001-956a-adcb5d3bb369.png?v=1786153952","url":"https:\/\/relojesvintagemexico.com\/products\/rolex-day-date-bark-service-card-2023-ref-1807","provider":"rvmusa","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
