I just bought myself a 18238 18k YG with white roman dial as a 50th birthday gift for myself. I will post photos after I "give it to myself" on my birthday.

Love the watch...the classic Rolex and such a nice heft on the wrist.

Well, since they're not Presidents I guess they're not welcome.

The Day-Date with the Oyster bracelet is the "Young President" style so it is also allowed... I believe Rolex just put the Oyster Bracelet to align it with all the other models... but I much prefer the President Bracelet, it looks so nice and different from all the other models...

Do you have any pics of a SS DAYDATE? I thought this was only available as a Tudor option. Maybe a model number would help. Thanks


Oh yea and you forgot to mention the ROSE GOLD DD.

Love mine to bits....

...the one that started it all on a cold wet Saturday afternoon as an 8 year old boy standing hand in hand outside our local AD with my Dad (long story)....not the first watch I bought but the model that began the passion

The "vice president" for me is a rare Stainless Steel model that was only produced probably for a few Rolex employees... I have seen one or two pictures of them.

Here you go with the original thread for the VICE PRESIDENT... you can see in post #6 where I called that watch the vice-president....just for fun...(I think I might have been the first one...)
then the thread title got changed by Oscar to what I named it "vice-president"....

The original title was something like TRF's FIRST LOOK ON THE NEW ROLEX DAYDATE!!!!
