Pre-owned Rolex Day-Date ref. 18038 in 18k yellow gold with a fluted bezel and rare walnut/birch wood dial. 7.2M serial (1982). The wood dial is a natural veneer each example is unique showing rich burl figuring that shifts under light and gives the classic “President” profile a far more uncommon, period-correct character than a standard champagne dial.

Purchased from the original owner and presented in excellent condition: clean dial and hands, strong case geometry, and a tight President bracelet with full links and only minimal, honest stretch.

Includes: Rolex Service box and Rolex USA service paperwork dated 1991 and 1992 (service invoices/warranty documents shown in the photos).
