Rolex Day-Date "Mother of Pearl with Diamond"

€24,000 EUR

Rolex Oyster Perpetual Day-Date référence 18039 en or blanc 18 carats, cadran en nacre et index diamants.

Une Day-Date est rarement une montre discrète. Celle-ci a pourtant décidé d’essayer.

L’or blanc lui donne cette élégance presque silencieuse que l’or jaune n’a jamais vraiment cherchée. Et puis il y a le cadran : une nacre aux reflets roses, verts et gris, sertie d’index diamants, qui change complètement selon la lumière.

Datée de 1988, cette référence 18039 appartient à une génération de Day-Date où Rolex savait parfaitement mêler le classique et l’extravagant. Le boîtier de 36 mm et la lunette cannelée restent immédiatement reconnaissables ; le cadran, lui, fait tout le reste.

C’est précisément ce contraste qui rend la montre si attachante. De loin, une Day-Date en or blanc, presque sage. De près, de la nacre, des diamants et beaucoup moins de sagesse.

Elle est aujourd’hui montée sur un bracelet en cuir brun, qui calme légèrement le jeu et laisse toute la place au cadran.

Une Rolex élégante, précieuse, mais sans lourdeur.

Parce qu’après tout, si l’on décide de porter une Day-Date en or blanc avec un cadran nacre et diamants, autant ne pas prétendre qu’on voulait passer inaperçu.

 

Rolex Oyster Perpetual Day-Date reference 18039 in 18k white gold, with a mother-of-pearl dial and diamond-set hour markers.

A Day-Date is rarely a discreet watch. This one, however, decided to give it a try.

White gold gives it an almost understated elegance that yellow gold never particularly cared about. And then there is the dial: mother-of-pearl shifting between pink, green and grey, punctuated by diamond hour markers and constantly changing with the light.

Dating from 1988, this reference 18039 comes from a generation of Day-Date watches in which Rolex knew exactly how to mix classicism with extravagance. The 36 mm case and fluted bezel are unmistakably Day-Date; the dial does everything else.

That contrast is precisely what makes the watch so appealing. From a distance, a white-gold Day-Date, almost restrained. Up close, mother-of-pearl, diamonds and considerably less restraint.

It is now fitted with a brown leather strap, which tones things down just enough and leaves the dial to take centre stage.

An elegant and precious Rolex, without ever feeling heavy.

Because, after all, if you choose to wear a white-gold Day-Date with a mother-of-pearl and diamond dial, there is little point pretending you were trying to go unnoticed.
