Rolex Day-Date President 118209 Description

The Reference 118209 (c. 2000-2019) specifies the 36mm Day-Date from the modern 118xxx generation, configured with a smooth, domed bezel (0) and constructed from solid 18k white gold (9). Its technical and historical significance lies in its “stealth wealth” character; the combination of a precious metal case with the simplest bezel style creates an understated aesthetic that can appear as stainless steel to a casual observer. It is powered by the Caliber 3155 double quickset movement and features the generation’s upgraded heavy case and solid-link President bracelet. The 118209 represents the most discreet and minimalist option within the solid-gold Day-Date family, valued for its material purity and modern design.
