The 182XX references were replaced by the 1182XX references in 2000. This watch was equipped with the caliber 3155, which was the same as its predecessor's. Furthermore, it had an improved bracelet and clasp.The Day-Date comes in many varieties. The reference 118208 indicates that this watch has a domed bezel. Instead of a President bracelet like most Day-Dates, it comes on an 18k yellow-gold Oyster bracelet with concealed clasp. This bracelet was only made for this reference and is not in production anymore. The dial on this Rolex is also really cool: it's silver with yellow-gold Roman numerals.  All together it makes this watch look awesome! The condition is mint and the watch comes as a full set.

Introduction

Rolex Day-DateThe very essence of luxurious time-keeping, provided with a day and date function. It was launched in 1956 as a niche model and was only produced in precious metals (yellow-, white- and rosegold or platinum). Its retail price was way costlier than any other Rolex model. However, due to its popularity among a lot of prestigious people, for example presidents (hence, its nickname), it became Rolex’ flagship model. Over the years this model has enjoyed associations with a wide variety of people, from world leaders, athletes, celebrities and mafiosi (like Tony Soprano). Regardless of the differences, they all had one thing in common: being successful in their area of expertise. Therefore, to this day the Day-Date is still synonymous with luxury, prestige, style and success. With exception of the most modern models, the Day-Date comes in at 36mm. Do you earn this watch?
