The Rolex Day-Date II 218238 Black Dial is one of the most desired configurations in the modern Day-Date lineup, blending Rolex’s unmistakable luxury with contemporary styling. The 41mm case size gives this model bold presence while maintaining classic proportions, making it a top choice among collectors and executives alike.

Crafted entirely from solid 18K yellow gold, the case, bezel, and President bracelet represent Rolex’s pinnacle of precious-metal watchmaking. The fluted bezel catches light with every movement, while the signature three-link President bracelet offers extraordinary comfort and elegance.

The black dial sets this reference apart, introducing contrast that enhances both legibility and visual drama. Whether paired with stick or Roman hour markers, the black dial elevates the Day-Date II into a more modern and versatile design that transitions easily from business to evening wear. The full day display at 12 o’clock and date window at 3 o’clock maintain the model’s iconic functionality.

Inside, the watch is powered by the Rolex Calibre 3156, an in-house automatic movement known for precision, reliability, and smooth calendar operation. The Parachrom hairspring and Paraflex shock absorbers enhance durability, ensuring the watch performs as flawlessly as it looks.

Highly sought after due to its discontinued status and contemporary aesthetic, the 218238 Black Dial remains a strong investment piece in today’s luxury market. Its blend of precious metal construction, ideal 41mm sizing, and timeless black-and-gold styling makes it a standout choice for collectors.

At JD Watches NY, every Day-Date II undergoes full authentication, mechanical testing, and professional polishing so you're guaranteed a watch that meets the highest standards of condition and originality.
