Rolex President Day-Date 40mm White Gold 2021 for Sale

The Rolex President Day-Date 40mm White Gold 2021 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 40mm in white gold. 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 2021. The Rolex Day-Date has been one of the brand’s most prestigious lineages since it was launched in 1956. Earning the “President” nickname after being worn by United States president Lyndon B. Johnson, the Rolex Day-Date has had a strong presence in the White House since the 1960s. With chronometer-grade accuracy and complications displaying both the day of the week that spells out in full, this model is not only sought after for its elegance and heritage but also its practical use day to day. 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 228349

Above all, we hold one Rolex Day-Date 228349 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 President Day-Date 40mm Platinum, or against Rolex Datejust ‘Anniversary’ Dial 36mm Stainless Steel White Gold 2021. 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.
