Model # 1803 vs # 1807

Can someone explain the difference between the #1803 Model Reference Number and the Model # 1807??

I have a vintage 1807 and would like to know for reference purposes.

THANKS.............

The 1803 is your classic DD. It has polished bracelet and a fluted bezel. The 1807 is the Bark finish DD. It has bark finish in the center links of the bracelet instead of polished and the bezel is also bark finished instead of fluted.

My 1807 DD has a diamond bezel which is after market I am sure and it does not have a bark band so I can assume that it is after market as well. My Ser No. is 90xxxx which dates it back to 1962 / 1963 based on what I can learn. Thanks for the info. I am trying to get a feel for its worth and possibly put it up for sale either here or on eBay.

THANKS for the response..................
