Sell Rolex Day-Date NYC · Diamond District

Sell Your Rolex Day-Date
— the President —
for Top Dollar.

The Day-Date has been the ultimate status Rolex since 1956 — precious metals only, the President bracelet, and the day spelled out at 12. Because every Day-Date is gold or platinum, every Day-Date carries substantial intrinsic value before the watch market even enters the equation. We price both layers: the metal and the collector demand.

Rolex Day-Date References We Buy

From current production to the vintage references collectors chase — if it says Rolex Day-Date on the dial, we want to see it.

Day-Date 40

228238 · 228235 · 228206

The modern 40mm in yellow gold, Everose, and platinum — including olive-green and ice-blue dials that carry strong collector premiums.

Day-Date 36

128238 · 118238 · 18238

The classic 36mm President. Champagne dials, factory diamond markers, and bark or fluted bezels — the configuration determines the tier, and we identify it precisely.

Vintage President

1803 · 18038 · 18078

Pie-pan dial 1803s and early quickset references have a devoted vintage following. Original dials matter enormously — never refinish before selling.

Honest Pricing

What Your Rolex Day-Date Is Actually Worth

Day-Date offers stack two values: the precious metal itself (weighed and priced off the live gold market — the same live pricing we publish for gold) and the watch’s market position — reference, dial, and condition. Ice-blue platinum dials, factory diamond and stone dials, and clean vintage pie-pans all command premiums above their metal. A buyer who only weighs your President is underpaying you; we price both layers, in front of you.

Reference & dial — we identify exactly what you have, including rare variants

Condition — honest grading, no nitpick discounts; unpolished vintage preferred

Completeness — box, papers, and links raise the number but are never required

Live market — offers built on today’s comps, not last month’s price sheet

Sell My Rolex Day-Date — FAQ

Rolex Day-Date Questions, Answered

How much is my Rolex President worth?

Every Day-Date is solid 18k gold or platinum, so there is a substantial value floor before collector demand is added. Modern 40s, classic 36s, and vintage references each price differently — call 212-642-4345 with your reference or walk in for a free appraisal.

Do you buy Day-Dates with diamond dials and bezels?

Yes — and the key question is factory versus aftermarket. Factory diamond dials and bezels add genuine premiums; aftermarket settings are valued on their own merits. We determine which you have and explain the difference transparently.

Is my vintage 1803 Day-Date valuable?

Often more than owners expect. Pie-pan dials, original finishes, and honest patina drive vintage President value. Bring it exactly as-is — unpolished and unrestored is what collectors pay for.

My Day-Date doesn’t run — will you still buy it?

Yes. A non-running Day-Date still contains its full gold value plus parts and restoration value. Damaged and non-working Presidents get real offers here, not scrap-gold math.

Do you buy ladies’ President watches?

Absolutely — ladies’ Datejust President models in gold with factory diamonds are bought weekly. Same process: free appraisal, cash offer, same-day payment.
