Pre-Owned Rolex DayDate 36mm President L Series Yellow Gold - Burl Wood Dial

A masterpiece of timeless elegance, this 1989 Rolex Day-Date 36mm in 18k Yellow Gold is a true icon of prestige, crafted during a standout era in Rolex’s history. As part of the L-series, this reference features the highly desirable double quickset function, allowing for independent adjustment of both the day and date via the crown—an innovation that adds everyday practicality to one of Rolex's most luxurious models.

What sets this particular piece apart is its exceptionally rare and stunning burl wood dial, a natural wood veneer prized for its unique grain patterns and rich, organic beauty. Each burl wood dial is one-of-a-kind, making this watch as much a piece of art as a precision timepiece. The dial is elegantly appointed with applied yellow gold hour markers, and the day and date displays at 12 and 3 o'clock—signature elements of the Day-Date collection.

Encased in solid 18k yellow gold, the watch is framed by a classic fluted bezel, adding brilliance and dimension. It is paired with the iconic President bracelet, also in 18k yellow gold, known for its semi-circular links, hidden Crownclasp, and superior comfort and style.

Powered by the Rolex Caliber 3055, this model delivers COSC-certified accuracy along with the convenience of the double quickset feature. Entirely composed of original Rolex components, this 1989 Day-Date is a remarkable example of vintage luxury and craftsmanship, ideal for collectors and connoisseurs seeking a watch with distinctive character and enduring value.
