This 1986 Rolex Day-Date 18039BIC Tridor exemplifies one of Rolex’s most distinctive creations of the 1980s — a model that married technical mastery with visual sophistication.The Tridor, produced in small numbers, is defined by its unique use of three colours of 18-carat gold, with a white-gold case and fluted bezel framing a bracelet whose central links are subtly layered in yellow, rose, and white tones.This combination was achieved through a complex lamination process exclusive to Rolex, reflecting both the brand’s experimental spirit and its insistence on uncompromising quality during the period.
This example features a striking factory blue sunburst dial, a seldom-seen configuration that enhances the cool refinement of the white-gold case.The dial’s original tritium hour plots and applied white-gold baton markers remain untouched, showing only the light, even toning consistent with careful preservation.The overall condition of the watch is exceptional — the case edges remain sharp, and the President bracelet and clasp are as tight and solid as the day they left the Geneva workshops, a testament to both minimal wear and Rolex’s meticulous construction standards.
Having benefited from a full Rolex service in 2020, this timepiece has also been recently serviced by our in-house workshop, ensuring reliable performance and correct regulation.It retains its presentation set, including the original inner and outer boxes, the leather notepad holder, and a Rolex-signed notepad.In this state of preservation, the 18039BIC stands as a quintessential example of mid-1980s Rolex craftsmanship — a luxurious yet understated expression of the Day-Date lineage that continues to appeal to collectors who value authenticity, integrity, and originality.
An incredibly difficult to obtain Rolex VVIP timepiece.
