The Rolex Day‑Date 36 ref. 118238 represents timeless elegance in a 36 mm 18K yellow gold case crowned by a fluted bezel. Exclusively made in precious metals, this version features a white dial embellished with bold Rolex-style Roman numerals—crafted in matching yellow gold—for a refined yet vibrant contrast. The day aperture at 12 o'clock and date window at 3 o'clock (under magnifier) uphold the hallmark dual-calendar layout that defines the “President” watch.

Powered by Rolex’s legendary Caliber 3155, this automatic movement offers double quick‑set functionality, allowing independent adjustment of both day and date. It boasts 31 jewels, operates at 28,800 vph, and delivers approximately 48 hours of power reserve. COSC-certified and regulated to Rolex’s Superlative Chronometer standard (±2 sec/day), it ensures precision and reliability in a classically elegant format. The screw-down crown and sapphire crystal contribute to water resistance rated at 100 meters.

Secured by Rolex’s signature President bracelet in solid yellow gold, this reference blends comfort and prestige through semi-circular center links and a concealed Crownclasp. A watch of discreet presence and elevated refinement, the 118238 is cherished by collectors for its vintage appeal, pristine dial styling, and lasting status as a flagship Day‑Date execution.
