Historically speaking Rolex produce era defining timepieces, creating the cornerstones of horological history. The Day-Date is a key part of the Rolex legacy, and since 1956 has been synonymous with success and luxury. It is colloquially known as ‘ the President ’ because of the penchant for US presidents to opt for this iconic timepiece. This Day-Date II has all the details of the traditional 36mm Day-Date models  — precious metal, day and date aperture, and unparalleled prestige — however, it comes in a larger 41mm case. A statement piece on the wrist complimented by the stunning factory diamond dial and beautiful fluted bezel which plays with the light in all the right ways. 

This reference 2181238 boasts a bold and contemporary 41mm Oyster case, fully crafted in solid 18ct yellow gold. Mounted to the case itself is a matching fluted bezel, and secured to the wrist with a ‘ presidential ’ bracelet, featuring a coronet on the hidden deployant clasp. The dial itself is highly sought after, with factory diamond hour markers and baguettes at both 6 and 9. At the beating heart of the watch is a Swiss made high precision Rolex Cal. 3156 with ‘double quickset’ Day and Date functions. Even if the President is Rolex’s most prestigious model, it can also keep up with the lifestyle of a modern man, Parachrom hairspring and Paraflex shock absorbers mean this piece has greater resistance to shocks, knocks and temperature swings. 

The watch is protected with a sapphire crystal glass with utilitarian magnifying date cyclops at 3 O’Clock. 

 

As for the condition, it is overall excellent. This 218238 is a showstopper on the wrist and the ultimate dress watch. There are some gentle signs of wear commensurate with use as per the photographs, but on the wrist it looks fantastic. The bracelet shows pretty much no stretch as per the images, and it has a generous amount of links. There is a very small mark on the dial around the 5 numeral, extremely small but mentioned for complete transparency.  Mechanically, I have checked all the functions and it's working well. I monitored the timekeeping over 24 hours and it was running to ~6s/day, it also passed the water resistance tests. We offer a 6 month mechanical warranty on the movement of this piece. 

Along with the watch itself comes a plain presentation box, an invoice for your purchase and a certificate showing the serial has a clean history. This watch will also go via the eBay authenticity centre and will come with added paperwork for peace of mind, the tracked, insured delivery will require ID upon arrival. 

Current replacement value: £37,650.
