RolexDay-Date

From a trade seller, this Rolex Day-Date is presented as a full set. The sale includes the box, booklets, leather wallet and tray as well as the swing tag. This 2002 example is presented without any significant dents, bringing it within the bounds of its ‘A’ grading.

The reference 118238 we see here is traditionally sized at 36mm. Sitting within this yellow gold case is a champagne dial with yellow gold Roman hands and applied indices. Together with the iconic fluted bezel and President bracelet, the watch achieves maximum luxury. Despite its dressy appearance, it is also equipped with genuine utility and practicality thanks to its 100m of water resistance. Powered by the calibre 3155, boasting 48 hours of power reserve and has successfully passed the Swiss Official Chronometer Testing Institute (COSC) tests.

First launched in 1956 and the world’s first chronometer wristwatch that could display the week’s date and day through windows in its dial, the Day-Date has become synonymous with luxury as a flagship model in Rolex’s catalogue.
