For your consideration, a gorgeous 1984 Rolex President Ref 18038 (8.37M Serial) – arguably the most iconic watch on the planet.  The second in the lineage of the President line, the 18038 features an upgraded, single quickset movement and sapphire crystal. 


The beautiful Day-Date before you here has the classic, gold sunburst dial framed by Rolex’s famous fluted bezel.  The dial is fitted with aftermarket (i.e. jeweler set) diamond indices with baguette cut diamonds at 6 and 9 o'clock providing a gorgeous radiance in the light.  The hands are in wonderful condition.  Adding to the uniqueness of this piece, the President is fitted with a factory Rolex, 18k solid gold jubilee bracelet fit with the classic "Big Crown" fold-over clasp.  The end links are stamped 49.


The watch runs well and keeps good time. The watch is FRESHLY SERVICED -- it will have a complete overhaul finished 5/24/24. The watch is ready for daily wear and will not need any work or maintenance for years to come.


The beauty of the Rolex 18038 is that it is fitted with a Calibre 3055 perpetual movement; the heartbeat of the watch.  A fifth-generation Day-Date movement, the calibre 3055 includes many modern luxuries, such as 28,800 bph and the addition of a Quickset function.  The Quickset function allows the wearer to adjust the date aperture on the dial with a quick twist of the crown.  Older, non-Quickset movements require the crown to be wound a full 24 hours to change the date. 


All in all, a beautiful Rolex President.  Any questions, please don’t hesitate to ask, I love talking all things Day-Date.  I have bought and sold many, they are by far my favorite watch to own and wear.
