The Rolex Day-Date, introduced in 1956, marked a significant shift for the brand. Despite earlier efforts with more complex models like the Ref. 6036 & Ref. 6062, the Day-Date only found its niche, especially after US President Dwight D. Eisenhower was seen wearing it. This moment solidified the Day-Date's reputation as ‘The President,’ symbolizing success and prestige worldwide.
This particular early production Ref. 18238, is crafted from 18kt yellow gold and features the iconic three-piece link "Presidential" bracelet, which is synonymous with luxury. The classic 36mm case is complemented by a fluted yellow gold bezel, embodying the elegance that Rolex is renowned for.
What truly sets this piece apart is its stunning ivory dial, an exceptional variant of the 18238 series. This watch is adorned with factory-set round 'pinball' diamonds as hour markers, creating a dazzling effect against the cream-colored lacquer background. The combination of the diamond indices and the elegant dial makes this timepiece not just a watch, but a work of art. 📍
Complete with its original Rolex box, warranty papers dated 8 Nov 1992 & all accessories, this is a highly collectible timepiece for avid collector. For those looking for a standout timepiece, this Rolex Day-Date 18238 is definitely a rare find that combines exquisite craftsmanship with a rich history!
