Rolex 118139 Day Date 18K White Gold Cherry Red Dial

The Rolex Day‑Date reference 118139 in 18K white gold with its cherry red dial represents a rare and striking iteration of Rolex’s flagship President line. Introduced as part of the 1182xx Day‑Date 36 collection launched in 2000, the leather‑strap variants—including the cherry dial—debuted around Baselworld 2013 and remained in production through approximately 2018. Powered by the in‑house automatic Caliber 3155, this watch offers the renowned double quick‑set day and date functions, COSC‑certified precision, and roughly 48 hours of power reserve. The 36 mm white gold case, paired with a matching fluted bezel and sapphire crystal, exudes classic elegance, while the cherry red dial adds a vibrant yet refined flair that is seldom seen in Day‑Date models. The leather strap option, here in a burgundy alligator, further enhances the watch’s exclusivity and collector appeal, as Rolex discontinued leather straps in the Day‑Date line with the 2019 generation. With a case thickness around 12.5 mm, this reference balances presence and wearability. The cherry dial variant is particularly coveted among enthusiasts for its rarity and the bold yet tasteful expression of Rolex craftsmanship. Like New with Rolex box and papers dated 2018.
