About this watch
This unworn Rolex 118238 showcases the Day-Date 36's most celebrated configuration: 18k yellow gold construction paired with the striking champagne jubilee diamond dial that transforms the classic presidential timepiece into a gem-set masterpiece. The 36mm case maintains the collection's traditional proportions while the fluted bezel creates the signature interplay of light and shadow that has defined Rolex's luxury aesthetic since 1956. Factory-set diamonds mark the hour positions against the warm champagne backdrop, creating subtle brilliance that complements rather than competes with the yellow gold case and President bracelet integration.
