Let’s say you’ve settled on getting yourself a Rolex Day-Date, but you just can’t make up your mind: yellow, rose, or white gold... What’s a guy or gal to do? Well, how about all three? No, not three separate Day-Dates. All three colours in one neat package!There really isn’t a good explanation for why the ‘Tridor’ came to be, at least not one we’ve been able to ascertain. It rather seems to be the case of: if we can do it, then why the f*ck not? It’s hard to imagine that Rolex, known for its conservatism, would come up with this utterly weird hybrid of a Day-Date. But it really was available from the late 1970s until around the late 1990s.This reference 18239B ‘Tridor’ Day-Date features a 36 mm 18k white-gold case and crown mixed with an 18k yellow-gold fluted bezel. The iconic President bracelet, meanwhile, is executed in two 18k white-gold outer links and a centre link that consists of alternating bands of rose, yellow, and white gold. Yet another pop of colour is introduced by the lovely vibrant blue dial, which features factory-set brilliant cut diamonds and alternating baguette cut diamonds at the 6 and 9 o’clock positions.This 18239B dates back to 1990 and runs on the update caliber 3155 automatic movement, with a convenient double quickset function to independently adjust the day and date mechanisms. The watch is in impeccable condition with a thick case, sharp lines and a super tight President bracelet.
