Rolex Day-Date 18239 'Big Diamond'

Rolex Day-Date — Ref. 18239 “Big Diamond” 

The Day-Date has long been Rolex’s most prestigious creation, but every so often, an example surfaces that feels a step above even its elevated status. This 18239, preserved in time-capsule condition, is exactly that kind of watch.

Its dial is the rare and coveted “Big Diamond” configuration, a style most often reserved for platinum Day-Dates — making its presence here in an 18k white gold case all the more unusual and desirable. The oversized brilliant-cut diamond hour markers radiate a presence that sets it apart from standard gem-set dials, giving the watch an unmistakable gravitas.

Perfectly proportioned at 36mm that houses the updated caliber 3155 with double quickset, and paired with the President bracelet, this Day-Date embodies understated opulence, elevated further by its rarity and immaculate preservation.

A reference point for collectors who understand the difference between simply rare — and truly exceptional. A real "Stealth Wealth" watch.
