The Rolex Day-Date ref. 18038 is one of the defining vintage yellow gold Rolex models, combining the 36mm Oyster case, fluted bezel, President bracelet, and full day-and-date display. The reference 18038 introduced a sapphire crystal and the quickset caliber 3055 movement, making it an important transition reference within the Day-Date line.
This example is especially strong because it pairs the classic 18K yellow gold Day-Date design with a champagne diamond and baguette dial, original box, original guarantee paperwork, and a well-preserved 9.5/10 condition. With its 129.6-gram total weight, full-set presentation, and 18K yellow gold President bracelet, it is a standout example of the iconic Rolex President.
