Produced in 1989, this Rolex Day-Date reference 18238 pairs an 18K yellow gold case with a fixed fluted bezel and a champagne analog dial finished with index markers and luminescent yellow-gold tone hands. The scratch-resistant sapphire crystal protects the dial, while a screw-down crown contributes to the watch's robust construction. At 36mm in diameter, the round case strikes a refined balance suited to the Day-Date lineage.
Power comes from a self-winding automatic movement — Rolex officially certified chronometer grade — featuring a double quick-set date function alongside the full suite of hours, minutes, seconds, and date display. The watch is fitted with a custom aftermarket blue leather strap secured by a gold-plated buckle.
The sale includes the original box along with a jewelry box and appraisal certificate; original papers are not included. The watch has been professionally polished and serviced and shows no visible scratches or blemishes. Swiss made designation applies.
