ABOUT THE WATCH
The Rolex Day-Date is among the most influential and classic watches of all time, and if you have kept up with popular culture or culture since 1956, it's not a claim that we have to justify. Basically, if you haven't lived under a rock for the last 60 years, chances are you have heard the term "Day-Date" or "President."
The Day-Date found its footing sometime around the 1960s. During this period, the watch developed its reputation as the timekeeper of choice for world leaders and the Wall Street elite. John F. Kennedy was famously gifted a Rolex Day-Date from Marilyn Monroe but never wore it publicly. The title of the first President to sport the Day-Date on the President bracelet goes to Lyndon B. Johnson. With him, the nickname "Rolex President" cemented itself in history.
This Day-Date 118239 is a particularly fine specimen. Day-Dates are most commonly associated with the more flashy 18k yellow gold flavor. However, this piece does not give up any of its star power with its addition of an equally punchy factory cherry dial.
This setup of a cherry dial on a white gold case comes in 3 variations, one being a leather strap option, an oyster bracelet, and my favorite of the bunch, the president bracelet configuration.
