1984 Rolex Day Date Diamond String Dial NOS Ref. 18038 (with Papers)
From Saudi Arabia with Love - This Rolex Day Date 18038 is in in unbelievable, 100% unworn, New Old Stock condition.Yes, it is hard to believe that it remains untouched from the day it was sold in 1984 in Saudi Arabia. The watch is factory fresh and doesn't show any wear at all. The stunning Lemon color dial has a double string of factory diamonds all over up to the Day Window. All in all this watch has a very Royal appearance like we would expect to see a watch from the prosperous Middle East, eye candy at its finest. The original punched Certificate and box make this watch even more attractive, we doubt that there will be another one like this.

Brief History
Rolex Day-Date
Arguably one of the most iconic watches ever made, the Day-Date aka the Rolex President was introduced in 1956 and was the first to feature both the day and date in dedicated windows on the dial.
The Day-Date is the top model in the Rolex line-up and comes in an array of configurations with rare and special dials and case decorations. It has only ever been made in precious metals with Automatic movements and historically with an elegant diameter of 36mm - the perfect size for an iconic dress watch.
