Rolex Yellow Gold Day-Date 36 Watch - Fluted Bezel - Champagne Index Dial - Oyster Bracelet - 118238 chso

Powered by Rolex's perpetual, self-winding caliber 3155 movement, the champagne-dialed Day-Date reference 118238 exemplifies the technical mastery that earned this collection its "President's Watch" distinction. This 36mm yellow gold case houses a movement displaying both day and date complications through dedicated apertures, engineered to maintain precision across its 48-hour power reserve. The fluted bezel, machined from solid yellow gold, creates the signature light-catching ridges that have defined Day-Date aesthetics since 1956. Factory-fresh condition preserves every detail of this iconic timepiece, from the champagne dial's sunburst finish to the robust Oyster bracelet's brushed center links.
