The Day Date is Rolex’s top-of-the-line watch. Displaying the day of the week below 12 o’clock and the date at 3 o’clock, the Day-Date became known as the President because the watch was worn by numerous American presidents. It is glamorous, luxurious and can be found with a variety of bracelets, bezels, gold finish designs and, most of all, dials. One of the most appreciated and sought after by passionate and collector is surely the “Stella”, which is enamel and usually with a vivid color. The present reference 18 038 has been manufactured in yellow gold with a president bracelet and is equipped with one of the most intriguing Stella variants ever: the green one. This dial is something spectacular with the glamorous combination of diamond-set indexes on a Green Stella dial: Rolex experimented with many colors for Stella dials and one of the most graceful yet at the same time appreciated by collectors is the green one. Completed by its original warranty, this lot is a true gem for the Day-Date aficionados.
