Rolex Day-Date President 118338 Description

The Reference 118338 is a factory gem-set model of the 36mm Day-Date, produced c. 2000-2019. The technical specification is an 18k yellow gold case (8) with the 33 configuration, which denotes a bezel factory-set with 52 brilliant-cut diamonds AND case lugs factory-set with 24 brilliant-cut diamonds. This dual-location, high-carat setting places it in the upper echelon of the Day-Date collection. The watch is powered by the Caliber 3155 automatic movement, featuring a double quickset day-date function. Built on the modern 118xxx platform, it features the heavier case with polished lugs and the solid-link President bracelet. Its significance is as a premier factory jewelry piece, combining extensive diamond work with the robust engineering of the modern Day-Date.
