Hello!
Kaneko from Commit Ginza will introduce a recommended watch!
Today, we have a Day-Date with a captivating rare dial.
ROLEX Day-Date All Tritium
Ref.18038A Serial.93 (manufactured circa 1985)
Cal.3055 8385/FF55 Clasp Code J10
Accessories: Box, warranty card (10: Switzerland / August 1986 stamp)
SOLD OUT!!
The Rolex Day-Date, the pinnacle model, is available only in gold and platinum.
The Ref. 18038 is a Day-Date that appeared in the late 1970s,
and it is a model that significantly improved practicality from the previous model "Ref. 1803"!
The crystal was changed from plastic to sapphire crystal,
and a quick-set date function was also installed!!
It is a popular model that retains a vintage feel
while also offering excellent practicality.
This time we are introducing a highly rare red gradation dial!
Red gradation dials are quite difficult to find.
While champagne dials are overwhelmingly more common,
this red gradation dial really catches the eye!!
The dial features a beautiful gradation, transitioning from a deep dark red on the outer edge to a vibrant red towards the center!
Compared to the less common blue gradation,
the red gradation is an even rarer dial with fewer existing pieces from that era.
The depth of color changes significantly depending on the viewing angle and how the light hits it,
creating an enchanting look unique to the red gradation that is simply irresistible.
The deep color is simply superb!!
The vibrant expression when light hits it is so beautiful that you can't help but gaze at it!
The dial condition is very clean, with no noticeable scratches or deterioration.
The luminous material on the indices is in perfect condition with no missing parts.
It's wonderful. You don't often encounter pieces like this.
The luminous material is all tritium. The luminous material on the hands is also in very clean condition.
Overall, there are scuffs and scratches from use,
but it's a good piece that suggests it might be unpolished!
Furthermore, it has developed a golden patina throughout,
resulting in a great vintage look!!
In particular, the middle case is in good condition with sharp edges!!
As you can see, the lugs are perfectly defined!!
The hairline finish is also in beautiful condition.
The fluting on the bezel is also well-defined!!
The buckle clasp code is "J10."
The President bracelet, which matches the era, has only slight stretch,
but it is still sturdy!!
Accessories include a box, warranty card, Oyster booklet, and extra links.
They are all complete.
Wrist shot!!
The deep red gradation exudes an indescribably enchanting allure!!
ROLEX Day-Date "Ref.18038A/Red Gradation"
The retro and exquisite red gradation dial creates a charming vintage atmosphere!!
It's rare to find a Day-Date in such good condition with a rare color!!
It also comes with all its accessories, so we highly recommend it!
To customers looking for a stylish older model Day-Date, please consider it.
