Description

This is an automatically translated text.
The Rolex Oyster Perpetual Day-Date, reference 18026, is characterized not only by its rare, heavy platinum case and tonneau shape, but also by its remarkable provenance from the first owner. With a case diameter of 36mm, a thickness of 12.30mm and a weight of approximately 180g, this watch offers an impressive presence on the wrist. The silver-colored dial with the display of the day of the week in German and the date window, combined with the automatic movement caliber 3055, underlines the precision and reliability of this watch.

The watch comes with a platinum President bracelet, which seamlessly merges into an integrated folding clasp, and features the case, dial and movement, all signed by Rolex. This collector's piece was produced around 1980 and is particularly valuable not only for its aesthetic features, but also for its complete documentation and original accessories.

The complete package includes the original box, a Rolex Service Travel Pouch, without the original papers, but with extensive documentation about the purchase. These documents mention further platinum elements and a service at the renowned Bucherer company. A detailed description from 1990 and a small Rolex booklet explaining the movement of the watch after a movement check upon delivery are also included. The highlight is the detailed description of the oyster Perpetual Day-Date especially for this Rolex model. The box itself is in beautiful condition and bears the reference 71.80.04.

This Rolex Day-Date in platinum is an exceptional piece that is a valuable addition for both collectors and lovers of fine watches. The combination of its rare execution, comprehensive set of documents and accessories, and direct provenance from the first owner makes it a unique offering on the market.
