About the Day-Date 36 18248

The Rolex Day-Date 36 18248 is a reference in the Rolex Day-Date collection. From our catalog: a 36 mm case in Yellow gold. 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

We count 18 transactions toward its estimate, 12 eBay sales and 6 auction results; the earliest entry shown is from November 2023, the latest from August 2026. December 2024 saw the most activity, 3 sales in a single month. On the auction side, the results are from Bukowskis, HENRY's Auktionshaus and Antiquorum. It carries a moderate-confidence label: the range is a sound guide, but a single sale can still land outside it. The newest sale is 77 days old, so the figure leans on older evidence. We cannot yet grade its price swings: the last quarter holds too few results. A fair price for the 18248 can sit anywhere from about 35% below to 35% above the midpoint. Because it changes hands rarely, a sale still counts for half after 180 days.

Its median over the last twelve months is 30.9% higher than the twelve months before, on 10 and 8 sales. Its first recorded sale dates from December 2004, so a decade-scale view will have to wait. Auction buyers have paid more than eBay buyers for the 18248 recently: a gap of about 19% between the medians, from 7 eBay sales against 3 auction results.

Sellers without the original box and papers should expect roughly 20% less; that discount comes from 20 watch-only results in the same family. The listed sales split 5 full sets to 2 watch-only and 2 partial; the rest gave no set details. The floor of the list (December 13, 2024, at Sotheby's, watch only) is about 56% below the worth-about figure, and its ceiling (May 25, 2024, at Phillips, set not stated) is about 105% above the worth-about figure.
