Rolex Day-Date 36 18238 18K Yellow Gold Champagne Service Dial (1990)

The gold Rolex President is a watch that requires no introduction. For decades, it has stood as the universal symbol of success, refinement, and timeless design. This Rolex Day-Date 36 Reference 18238 perfectly distills that legacy while offering a highly unique advantage for collectors who intend to wear their watches daily.

Crafted from solid 18K yellow gold, this 1990 "E-serial" model features a genuine Rolex Factory Service Replacement Dial. While vintage tritium dials from this era naturally degrade, darken, and cease to glow, this genuine modern-style service dial boasts an immaculate sunburst champagne finish, crisp texturing, and powerful Super-LumiNova luminous batons labeled "SWISS MADE". It grants the watch a striking, fresh-out-of-the-factory look while preserving 100% Rolex provenance.

Underneath the hood, the reference 18238 marks a massive mechanical leap forward for the Day-Date line by introducing the Caliber 3155 Double Quickset movement. Rather than manually spinning the hands around the dial to change the day of the week, this movement allows you to independently correct both the day and date wheels with a simple twist of the crown. Presented as a watch-only piece in superb aesthetic condition, this is the perfect opportunity to secure a bulletproof, modern-reading vintage icon.
