Pre-owned Rolex Day-Date ref 18238 (1990) is one of the world's most famous gold luxury watches. It made history in 1956 as the first mechanical wristwatch to display the date alongside the day of the week spelled out in full, never abbreviated, and has since appeared on the wrists of countless influential individuals, such as American Presidents, A-list celebrities, and powerful businessmen. It is the ultimate status symbol. Rolex released ref. 18238 in the late 1980s, replacing the previous ref. 18038, and featuring the upgraded caliber 3155 with a Double Quickset. With this convenient function, the wearer can adjust the date and the day of the week separately from the time. For comparison, ref. 18038 has a Single Quickset for the date, which means the hour hand still needs to advance around the dial a full 24 hours to change the day display.
Aside from the movement, ref. 18038 looks similar to its predecessor, featuring a scratch-resistant sapphire crystal, a 36mm waterproof case, and a President bracelet with rounded, three-piece links. This edition of the Rolex Presidential is particularly valuable because it also sports a unique exotic wood dial instead of a traditional Day-Date dial. No two dials will ever be exactly the same because of the distinctive wood grain. Interesting dials like this one are in demand among collectors because they bring something unique to the collection yet are still instantly recognizable as a famous Rolex Day-Date.
This watch has a strange effect. When I wear it I feel like I run the show. Even if that show is a supermarket.
Watch was in mint condition! Super clean and looks brand new! Couldn't even tell it was used. Tanya was fantastic. The whole process was super easy. Took the watch to Rolex after I got it and got it appraised for $250 just to be sure. 100% authentic. I'm very happy. Can't beat the price and again, Tanya was awesome!
The condition was as advertised
Absolutely clean and like new presidential. Tanya was extremely pleasant and efficient in helping me. Shipping was super fast. Would definitely recommend to anyone.
The description perfectly matches the watch. It is in excellent condition from what I can see, fits very well and has no blemishes. Overall, I am very pleased with the experience and overall outcome. I would certainly do business again.
I cannot complement Sarah Ayar enough. She was wonderful in helping with fast shipping. A wonderl asset to you company.
I want to start by saying that working with Sam was a pleasure as she was very knowledgable, helpful, & honest during the entire process, which was several months. I had been considering selling my 18kt Yacht-Master & buying a 18kt Presidential Rolex for a long time & was finally able to do this. I have been dealing with Sam through the entire process & in the end am very happy with the opportunity to have dealt with someone as honest and knowledgable has her. I am very picky and detail oriented and am pleased with the price & near mint condition of the Presidential Rolex I ended up purchasing. I also feel as though I received a fair price for the Yacht-Master I sold to Bob’s Watches. Sam oversaw everything & made the entire process very comfortable. I would not hesitate to do business with Bob’s Watches again in the future. Thanks again, Chris

This is my second purchase from Bob’s. The watch arrived to my home in less than 24 hours from when I ordered it, in perfect condition, exactly as described online and in the photos. Exceptional watch and experience!!
Called Bobs Watches on Monday around 12:00 EST to have a few questions answered about a Rolex President. I talked to Sara who explained how the ordering process worked and explained the payment options. She was very helpful and transferred me to accounting who sent me the wiring instructions. I placed the order around 1:00 PM on Monday, 11/18/19 and sent the wire around 1:30 PM the same day. The Rolex President was sent the same day, Monday 11/18 via Fed-Ex Overnight Air and I received it at 9 AM on Tuesday 11/19/18. The Rolex President was in excellent condition as described and I also receives all the Rolex Paperwork and Booklets as shown on their Website. Bobs Watches have Professional Employees that are knowledgeable about Rolex Watches and anyone should not hesitate to order from them. Thanks BOBS!!! Ed Campbell, Atlanta, GA

Everything was in excellent condition. I’m very happy with the overall watch. Pictures were exactly how the watch looks
