Additional Informations: Here is the opportunity to acquire an unpolished Rolex Day-Date Ref. 18238 that can truly be worn and enjoyed, as it already shows light, honest signs of wear. This is precisely what defines the appeal of this example: no reworked surfaces, no loss of substance, but an authentic condition with preserved geometry and sharp edges.
Particularly noteworthy is the most sought-after dial of all – the Onyx stone dial. Produced only in relatively small numbers, these dials are characterized by their deep black, perfectly uniform surface without indices. In combination with the applied gold elements surrounding the date and day apertures, this creates an exceptionally clean yet highly luxurious appearance that has always been appreciated by collectors. With stone dials, condition is everything, and this example presents itself in outstanding quality, free from cracks or fractures.
The watch is offered as a complete set with box and papers and was originally delivered in Italy, further enhancing its overall appeal. It also benefits from a recent service carried out by Rolex in January 2026, ensuring the watch is in excellent technical condition and still covered by the corresponding service warranty until January 2028.
