Why We Love This Watch
Rolex’s Day-Date with its iconic yellow gold President bracelet and classic champagne dial is an unmistakable symbol of prestige. This piece isn’t just stunning—its 3055 movement showcases the pinnacle of Rolex craftsmanship, making it a coveted choice for those who value elegance and performance in a single, timeless design.
$15,429.86 Rolex Day-Date 18038 1987 168504 Excellent Unisex Box Only Yellow Gold Sapphire 36mm 18k Yellow Gold Fluted 9433XXX Champagne w/ Index hour markers, Tritium hands & Tritium lume 3055 Automatic Fixed Date Yellow Gold President Concealed Crownclasp

Pre-owned Rolex Day-Date ref 18038 (1987) is one of the most iconic gold Rolex watches. It was made famous in 1956 by being the first mechanical wristwatch to display the day spelled out in full (never abbreviated) alongside the date. Furthermore, Rolex has only ever produced the watch in precious metal, making it an ultra-exclusive collection sought-after by some of the most influential individuals. As a result, the Rolex Presidential has become the ultimate symbol of power, prestige, and success. Ref. 18038 is notable because it features the caliber 3055 self-winding movement with a Quickset date and a scratch-resistant sapphire crystal. This example pairs the yellow gold finish with a classy champagne dial - a design set many collectors are after.

Linen Dial Rolex Day/Date

I ordered this product late on a Thursday evening and it was delivered before noon on Saturday morning. The watch was in better condition than I anticipated and all parts were period correct. The crystal was a replacement crystal and hands were also replaced somewhere along the way as they were the only parts that had lume. the tritium on the hour indices has long since expired so for the hands to shine brightly, they were likely replaced - I'm good with this as the watch is much more practical as a result. If the watch wasn't clearly from the mid 80s based on a different case design (brushed lug hoods versus current day polished), I would think this was a relatively recent production piece. The bracelet has almost no sag and the clasp buckles tightly. Very happy with this purchase and experience
