The Day-Date on a leather strap is a configuration that Rolex has offered since the model’s debut in 1956, yet it remains one of the less commonly seen variants. The 118135 pairs a 36mm rose gold case with a black leather strap, creating a watch that reads as distinctly formal — more boardroom than beach. The silver dial with its day window at twelve and date at three delivers the full Day-Date complication in a package that weighs less and drapes differently than its bracelet counterpart.

The 118135 Up Close: Case, Dial and Strap
The silver dial carries a subtle sunburst grain that complements the warmth of the rose gold case. The day display at twelve o’clock spells out the full day of the week through an arched aperture, while the date at three shows through a magnified Cyclops window. Applied hour markers in rose gold echo the case colour for a unified palette.
The smooth domed bezel gives the 118135 a clean, unadorned profile that contrasts with the fluted bezels common on Datejust references. Paired with a black leather strap, this Day-Date sits lighter on the wrist and takes on a more traditional dress-watch character. Explore more Day-Date configurations in the Day-Date collection.
Movement Options: Swiss vs Japanese
Choose between two tiers of automatic movement based on your priorities:
- Swiss automatic — smooth high-beat operation with extended power reserve and architecture reflecting genuine Day-Date caliber standards. The refined option for those who value mechanical accuracy.
- Japanese automatic — Miyota-based caliber with dependable daily accuracy and straightforward servicing at any qualified watchmaker. A practical, reliable choice.
Both movements power the day and date complications with quickset adjustment for both windows.
