Hello!

Kaneko from Commit Ginza will introduce some recommended watches!
Today we have a Day-Date watch with an attractive, beautiful dial.

Rolex Day-Date All Tritium
Ref.18038A Serial.94 (manufactured around 1986)
Cal.3055 8385/FF55 Clasp Code L1
Accessories: Box, warranty card (301: Croatia/open)
SOLD OUT

The Day-Date is Rolex's highest-end model, available only in gold and platinum.
Compared to the previous model/Ref.1803,
The windshield has been changed from plastic to sapphire crystal.
This is the "Ref. 18038" which is equipped with a quick date change function.

It's pretty hard to find an old-style Day-Date with a blue dial.
Since there are overwhelmingly more champagne dials available,
It is a beautiful dial that gives off a very fresh feeling.

The dial is pale blue, but it also has a slight purple hue.
It creates a retro atmosphere.

What do you think of this exquisite blue dial?
It's beautiful.
This is a very rare and beautiful dial.

The dial has discoloration around the luminous area and other areas due to aging,
The change is extremely natural, and it actually creates a nice vintage atmosphere.
In particular, the index luminous material is in perfect condition with no missing parts.
That's amazing.
Such individuals are hard to come across.

The needle luminous material is also in very good condition.
I can't get enough of this retro blue texture.

The overall condition is that there are scratches and scuffs associated with use,
Overall condition is good.

The middle case in particular has sharp edges and is a great piece!

There are some scratches, but as you can see, the lug legs are in perfect condition!!

Buckle clasp code is "L1"

The President bracelet, which is almost the same age as the watch, is slightly worn,
It's very sturdy!!

Accessories include box, warranty card, day-date booklet (83), Oyster booklet (83)
We have the following items.

This is a stylish day-date booklet that you don't see very often.

LUNES/Spanish, MONDAY/English, MANDAG/Danish
MONTAG/German, LUNEDI/Italian, LUNDI/French

These are day of the week windows in six languages, all of which represent Monday.

Wrist shot!!
Enjoy the exquisite blue dial!

The more you look at it, the more beautiful the dial becomes!!

Rolex Day Date "Ref.18038A/Blue Dial"
The retro blue dial creates a vintage feel that makes this an attractive piece!
It's rare to find a Day-Date in such a rare color!!
It comes with a full range of accessories, so I highly recommend it!
