There's just something mesmerising about the combination of yellow gold and jet black.

The Rolex Day-Date, with an Onyx dial, definitely is one of the most desirable and popular stone-dials out there. We have sold our fair share in the past and boy has this watch proven to be a success. During the medieval ages, onyx stones were better known as evil stones, a symbol of mourning and misery. Fortunately, times have changed. Nowadays, onyx is a very desirable mineral that is used as a gemstone in jewellery or as we can see in this case; a wristwatch.

This 18038 dates back to the year 1979 and features a more contemporary "swiss made" Onyx dial. This astonishing piece of horology is powered by the caliber 3055 with single quickset function which allows you to set the date independently. The case, which is in super sharp condition, measures in at the perfect size of 36mm. All this glory is carried by a beautiful black alligator strap from Rolex with complimentary 18k yellow gold Rolex buckle. To compliment all this serenity, you will only find gold on the date and day windows, the closed hands and the text. The watch is accompanied by tag which shows us the serial and the original case-back sticker.
