The 218238 launched at Baselworld 2008 alongside the Datejust II at a USD 27,650 MSRP for the base yellow gold and USD 30,150 with the 8 round + 2 baguette diamond dial. Rolex rolled out the random scrambled serial system catalogue-wide in 2010, and the 218238 production straddles the rollover. Late G-serial examples and random-serial post-2010 examples both surface in the secondary market through approximately 2012. Around 2012 Rolex executed the Sultan of Oman Royal Khanjar 218206 platinum commission, the caseback engraved with the Royal Khanjar crest. Baselworld 2015 brought the discontinuation: the Day-Date 40 (228xxx) launched at 40mm, replaced the Day-Date II 41mm outright, and continued the 36mm 118238 line until that line's own discontinuation in 2019.
