In 2014 I bought my 1975 Rolex DayDate ref:1803 with 1556 movement and President bracelet (hidden clasp version) in 18k yellow gold, with box and original Rolex booklet (all in very nice condition) for 5400 Euros from a pawn shop on ebay. Now, 4 years later you have to pay at least 7000 Euros and more on ebay for a 1803 Rolex with president bracelet. You will not be able to get it for 5400 Euros anymore. Impossible.
Hi, when I studied in TU Delft 12 years ago, I had a Dutch friend named Robin. He studied Microelectronics, and he's interested in learning Japanese and Chinese. Is that you?
Precious metals are by far the most expensive ones in watches. They do not improve performance to watches, however, lots in suggested retail prices. Besides that the resale price is dramatically lower than stainless steel models. Subs, Daytonas, Explorers....
Out of all rolex models, the black dialed day-date president is my favorite! Saw the Black Stella on your site, stunning. What year was that model? Does it comes with all paperworks?
I just bought a 18248 day date bark finish 36mm it’s beautiful and mint condition. I plan on getting 118239 white gold 36mm next. You could have both watches for the price of one new 40 mm day date. Makes more sense to me. Also down the road I would buy a day dateii 41 mm yellow gold. I like the fact that all three are discontinued as well. I don’t know why people complain and say the 36 mm too small it’s really not it’s very classy looking they’ve been around since the 50s as well. If you have the funds you can have the 36 mm watches and you can have the bigger version watches so you have the best of both worlds?🤷♂️
Hi. Loved the video. I am considering buying a 1990 18238 day date with white dial. Full B&P. However the watch comes on an oyster style clasp rather than the concealed crown clasp. Is this potentially right for the period or has it been retro-fitted? It is in A1 condition and looks to have seen little wear. The green sticker on the back of the case is really unfaded and legible. Was it possible to specify with the gold oyster clasp in 1990? Any help would be appreciated
Nice video... but if you think president is going up in value, I have some wooden shoes and tulips to sell you. I thought exact same thing in 1998 (when you were 5? lol) I bought a bark finish prez for $6500, because I was convinced that gold would increase in value, and the watch was cheap compared to stainless daytona which was $9k. Gold has tripled in price, but the watch is still worth $6500.
@@TA1199 I just bought an 18248 bark finish and it’s gorgeous. I don’t like to be a follower and wear what everybody else is wearing. It’s a very unique watch and I love it !I wish they still made the bark finish in the larger version, I would buy that as well
At 3:40 you show the Day-Date on the left (Jubilee bracelet) with what I think is called the "Textile" dial, but you don't make mention of this in the discussion of Dial options. Would be interested to hear a discussion of the history/desirability of this dial option. Great video, thanks.

My dad bought a 1308 in 1998, fluted bezel, white dial, hour markers, no Roman numerals. He never wears it an it sits in his safe, in its original box, with the papers and receipt. It even still has the green sticker on the back. Wonder how much it is worth today.
Idk....36mm is more for woman now, 40mm is perfect hence why rolex change from 36 to 41 to the day date 40. I have a 18248 which is a great vintage piece but the 228238 just feels so much more superior which i own too....other than that excellent video!
This was a really nice and informative video about buying a day date.

I am having a really hard time figuring out witch one to get...
"Colored gold" is not a "precious metal" and the only gold that is "fine" enough to be considered a "precious metal" is too soft to make any jewelry out of and is used to alloy with "semi-precious" and base metals to create "colored gold" and other gold alloys to get the "pros" of gold when alloyed and "diluted" with metals that typically do more for gold by eliminating or at least mitigating its "cons". Which are all big problems when using gold "pure" enough to be "precious". Which creathes the unique opportunity to be ably to buy something pure and precious but that must be diluted and polluted to be "useful" for manufacturing and therefore becomes more "valuable" while becoming progressively "cheaper" to purchase but which ceases being "gold".
the 1st thing u need to look at before buying a dd is your bank account balance....
hahahahahaaaa!
well if you are well off you don’t need to even check your account LOL!!!

How to verify if the bracelet belongs to 1803,18038 or 18238? Any indication on it?
Step 1: if you want one pay a little more and buy it from AVW or AWC. they are the best in vintage.
