Notes

In the mid- 1980s the Day-Date line introduced the Tridor version. One single model combining three gold colors: a yellow gold bezel, a white gold case and a President bracelet with fused yellow, white and pink gold center links. Perfectly exemplified by the outstanding piece which is illustrated here, manufactured in 1987 bearing the 18039B reference number. The superb and rare dial is adorned with diamonds that surround the Arabic numerals indexes.
The caliber 3055 movement, powering Day-Date models from 1977 to 1988, brings the single quick-set date function, which allows a rapid date adjustment.
This beautiful and precious Day-Date is accompanied by the original Rolex punched warranty.
