Watch Market Comparison
A Rolex Day-Date 36, model 118238, is an enduring symbol of prestige and refinement, often referred to as the “President’s Watch.” Crafted entirely from 18ct yellow gold, this 2002 example features a 36mm Oyster case paired with a fluted bezel, giving it a timeless and distinguished presence. The striking blue dial is adorned with applied baton hour markers and the iconic day and date apertures, with the Cyclops lens ensuring enhanced legibility. Completing the design is the signature President bracelet, also in solid 18ct yellow gold, known for its comfort and unmistakable elegance.
Inside, the watch is powered by the Rolex calibre 3155, an automatic movement offering a 48-hour power reserve. This in-house calibre features a double quickset function, allowing independent adjustment of both the day and date, and is certified as a Swiss chronometer for precision and reliability. Scratch-resistant sapphire crystal, a screw-down crown, and water resistance to 100 metres add to its durability while maintaining Rolex’s uncompromising standards of quality.
Presented in immaculate condition, this Day-Date 36 comes complete with its original Rolex paperwork, box, and certification, and is supported by a 12-month WLC warranty. With its solid gold construction, fluted bezel, and President bracelet, the 118238 remains one of Rolex’s most prestigious references — a statement piece that combines heritage, exclusivity, and lasting investment value.
