Individual sale results behind our data, from eBay and auction houses. Each watch differs in condition and set.

Forum rows are posts on Reddit r/Watchexchange, RolexForums and WatchUSeek that the seller marked sold. The amount is the listed price when marked sold, not a confirmed sale price, and forum rows do not feed our price.

About the Day-Date 36 118205

The Rolex Day-Date 36 118205 is a reference in the Rolex Day-Date collection. From our catalog: a 36 mm case in 18k Everose gold; bezel: Smooth polished 18k Everose gold; dial: Multiple dial options; seen: dark mother-of-pearl dial with diamonds (Uhren2000 listing); movement: Rolex calibre 3155, automatic. The specifications below list every fact we have sourced for this reference; anything we could not source is marked as not known.

What the sales say

The range for the 118205 rests on 17 sold results (13 eBay sales and 4 auction results), and the sales we list run from March 2024 to October 2026. No month was busier than May 2025, when 3 changed hands. Hammer results come from Antiquorum, Grailzee and Sotheby's. The label is moderate confidence, which suits a reference with a fair, not deep, run of sales. The newest sale is under two weeks old. We cannot yet grade its price swings: the last quarter holds too few results. A fair price for the 118205 can sit anywhere from about 35% below to 35% above the midpoint. Sales are thin, so older results keep their weight longer (a half-life of 180 days).

On a like-for-like annual view the median climbed 20.5%, comparing 8 recent sales with 9 earlier ones. The record only reaches back to March 2024, short of the five years a long-run figure needs. Saleroom and marketplace disagree by about 13%: eBay sits below the auction median, based on 5 eBay sales against 3 auction results.

A watch-only example is priced about 20% below a full set here, a gap measured from 20 watch-only sales in the collection. The listed sales split 8 full sets to 1 watch-only and 7 partial; the rest gave no set details. Listed sales ran from about 18% below the worth-about figure (April 14, 2025, on eBay, set not stated) to about 27% above the worth-about figure (March 13, 2026, on eBay, full set), which is the spread a seller should expect.

Nearest in price within the same collection: Day-Date 36 118239 price, Day-Date 36 118208 price and Day-Date 118209 price.
