Rolex - Day-Date - Ei pohjahintaa - 18238 - Miehet - 1990-1999

Pre-owned Rolex Day-Date ref. 18238, in yellow gold, champagne dial with diamonds, on top of a generic leather strap (with a generic buckle).

A timeless expression of Rolex prestige, the Rolex Day-Date Ref. 18238 combines classic proportions with the unmistakable elegance of an 18-karat yellow gold case.

This striking example features a luxurious champagne dial with diamond hour markers, creating a sophisticated contrast with the cool tones of the yellow gold case. The iconic Day-Date display, showing the day of the week spelled out in full at 12 o'clock and the date at 3 o'clock, remains one of the most recognizable designs in Swiss watchmaking.

The Rolex Day-Date 18238 is powered by a reliable automatic movement and represents an important generation of the legendary Day-Date collection. Its 36mm case offers timeless proportions, making it a versatile choice for both collectors and enthusiasts.

This watch is presented on a generic leather strap.
The strap gives the watch a more understated and contemporary character while allowing the exceptional champagne diamond dial and 18k yellow gold case to remain the focus.

Its story:
The Rolex Day-Date debuted in 1956, and to this day, not much about the watch has changed. That’s the power of such an icon, but perhaps it’s also the reason why it is such an iconic watch after all.

1988 saw the introduction of the ref. 182XX family of the Day-Date, taking over from that relatively short lived ref. 180XX (and for the Datejust it was the ref. 162XX replacing the ref. 160XX).
Externally, there was very little to tell one from the other and, in truth, their calibers shared far more similarities than differences too.

But by this point in its aesthetic development, the President was the President, its character and contours set in stone and its place as Rolex’s flagship unassailable. And the most classic interpretation of the Day-Date was the ref. 18238, a bold, brazen watch which was unmistakable in any company.
