Stock Code: E2DNLW
Store Location: GA Jewellers, Brighton Lanes

The Rolex Day-Date 118209 represents the pinnacle of Rolex’s classic dress watch collection — a model reserved exclusively for precious metals and long associated with status, refinement and authority.

Crafted entirely in 18ct white gold, this reference offers a more understated interpretation of the Day-Date, combining the weight and presence of solid gold with a discreet, monochromatic aesthetic.

This 2002 example, presented in very good condition and supplied as a full set with comprehensive Rolex service history, is a particularly strong offering — combining originality with documented care and maintenance.

Design & Presence

The 36mm case retains the timeless proportions that define the Day-Date, sitting perfectly on the wrist with a balance of elegance and presence.

The silver sunburst dial provides a refined backdrop for the standout feature — factory-set diamond hour markers, including both baguette and round diamonds, offering a sophisticated interplay of light without overwhelming the dial’s clean aesthetic.

Protected by a sapphire crystal, the iconic day display at 12 o’clock and date window at 3 o’clock remain central to the Day-Date identity.

Bracelet & Construction

Unusually for a Day-Date, this reference is fitted with an 18ct white gold Oyster bracelet with a concealed clasp — offering a sportier, more contemporary edge compared to the traditional President bracelet, while retaining full precious metal construction.

The result is a Day-Date that feels slightly more understated and versatile, without compromising on presence.

Movement – Calibre 3155

At its core is the Rolex Calibre 3155, an automatic movement developed specifically for the Day-Date line.

• Instantaneous day and date change

• Excellent long-term reliability

• Smooth and precise operation

A proven and highly respected calibre, designed to deliver both performance and durability.

Market Position & Appeal

White gold Day-Date references such as the 118209 offer a more discreet alternative to yellow gold, appealing to those who prefer understated luxury.

Examples featuring factory diamond dials, combined with full sets and documented Rolex service history, remain consistently desirable within the pre-owned market.
