Day Date

Just picked up this day date 118135 for the wife. I must say it's quite a gorgeous watch in person. Haven't seen many of them around - any out there in TRF land?

I love mine; a golden moldy oldie with a president bracelet (not a DDII however). FWIW, the DDII have been retired as Rolex shifts from 41 mm to 40 mm with the new DD40 coming to ADs near you. Love the dial on you wife's watch; very nice!!!

I've seen it at an AD and a few grey. It's a cognac dial. Absolutely gorgeous and an elegant leather strap to boot. Congrats! Your wife must be thrilled

Beautiful watch. Was it a surprise gift and, if so, what was your wife's reaction?

Congrats to your wife. That is a truly stunning piece. Don't think there are too many on this Forum who have this model, but do a search, you never know.

It was a surprise (although I got her to try it on during one of my AD visits). She still can't believe it's on her wrist now 👍

Very lucky lady.

As has been said previously, a few wrist shots when you've given the present.

Lovely piece, she will love it.
I have to save for a while to get a Day Date for my girlfriend who has requested one as her next Rolex.
