Rolex President 18k Yellow Gold - Mother Pearl Dial

The Rolex Day-Date reference 118238 is the definitive expression of timeless prestige, crafted entirely in solid 18K yellow gold and fitted with the iconic President bracelet that has defined the collection for generations. This 36mm example is elevated even further by its stunning Mother of Pearl dial, a feature that gives the watch extraordinary character and presence on the wrist. Complete with its original box and papers, this piece also includes the Rolex warranty card from its January 2026 service (cost of $6500!!) along with the accompanying service receipt and stickers along the sides of the case, offering additional confidence and provenance for its next owner.

What makes this watch truly captivating is the remarkable Mother of Pearl dial, which effortlessly transforms in the ever-changing light. Depending on the angle and environment, the dial reveals iridescent greens, soft purples, and luminous pearlescent tones that constantly shift and evolve throughout the day. The effect is elegant yet mesmerizing, perfectly complementing the warm richness of the 18K yellow gold case and bracelet. 

Finished with applied Roman numerals, the signature fluted bezel, and Rolex’s unmistakable Oyster Perpetual craftsmanship, this Day-Date embodies both sophistication and individuality in a way few watches can. It is a statement piece that perfectly captures the enduring essence and prestige of the Rolex Oyster Perpetual collection.
