The 118239 is the white-gold Day-Date 36 of the 6-digit era. Same 36mm President case as the yellow-gold [[Reference:118238|118238]], same fluted bezel, same caliber 3155, cut in 18k white gold instead. At arm's length it reads as steel, and that quietness is the whole appeal: a watch that weighs like gold and looks like nothing in particular until the fluting catches the light. Rolex catalogued it from 2000, on the President bracelet and on the Oyster, and gave it the widest dial range of any reference in the generation. Lapis lazuli, meteorite, mother-of-pearl, cherry lacquer and full pavé all sit in the same catalogue as plain silver and black. | The 118239 is the white-gold Day-Date 36 of the 6-digit era.
