Heritage Narrative The Rolex Day-Date, introduced in 1956, stands as the brand’s most prestigious model — the watch of choice for leaders, artists, and collectors worldwide. Known as the “President,” it was the first wristwatch to display both the day and the date spelled out in full, setting a new standard for elegance and mechanical sophistication. This reference 18238, produced in the early 1990s, captures that legacy with unmistakable character. Crafted entirely in 18k yellow gold, it features a fluted bezel and the iconic President bracelet, offering the perfect balance of refinement and authority. The true centerpiece is its original Burlwood dial — a rare and organic material whose intricate natural grain ensures that no two examples are ever alike. Powered by the reliable Calibre 3155, it includes the convenient double quickset function for both day and date. Offered in excellent condition and complete with its full set — box, certificate, booklet, and tag — this Day-Date exemplifies Rolex at its most elegant and individualistic.
