Rolex Day-Date II ‘Ice Blue’ Roman 41mm Platinum 2012 for Sale

The Rolex Day-Date II ‘Ice Blue’ Roman 41mm Platinum 2012 is for sale as a one-off piece. The Day-Date, known as the President, is made only in precious metal and spells the day out in full across the dial.

The case measures 41mm in platinum. The movement is automatic, wound by the motion of the wrist. It is factory or aftermarket gem-set; the dial and bezel stones are described in the listing photography.

A date display is set into the dial. The day of the week is spelled out on the dial. Production dates to 2012. Rolex does not publish production figures, does not discount, and allocates its steel sport models years behind demand. That structure is most of why the secondary market prices the way it does.

Condition is stated as Pre-owned. It is accompanied by Rolex box and card.

Buying this Rolex Day-Date 218206

Above all, we hold one Rolex Day-Date 218206 rather than a restockable line. Therefore the watch in the gallery is the watch that ships to you. For example, we photograph the caseback and the clasp, not only the dial. Meanwhile, you can weigh it against Rolex Air-King 40mm Stainless Steel 2017, or against Rolex President Datejust 36mm Yellow Gold 2008-2009. Similarly, the rest of our Rolex watches and the wider watch collection move every week.

How we authenticate and grade it

We authenticate every watch in house before listing it, so the grade above is ours rather than a consignor’s summary. However, condition language shifts from seller to seller, so we describe wear in plain words as well. Because sunlight fades a dial faster than wear does, store it out of direct light. In addition, how we authenticate sets out the process.

Shipping and import charges

We ship worldwide and insure every parcel, at no cost to you. However, import charges depend on where you live, so budget for them early. In short, the landed cost matters as much as the ticket price, and we set out the arithmetic in VAT, duty and the true landed cost. Meanwhile our Instagram shows what has just landed, and Facebook carries the same arrivals.
