The 1018 is a full 36mm case (20mm lugs)...think of a business suit Explorer 1. This has the original glossy black gilt dial. It definitely is getting more wrist time. I set it to Paris time so that I feel as if I am there when I look at it.

Very nice, @johnireland -- have you read Charlie Dunn's article on the 1018? A nice read if you (or others) haven't: https://www.strictlyvintagewatches.com/the-rolex-oyster-perpetual-reference-1018

Love those black gloss dials. Almost like black water. Compliments the GILT print perfectly.

Oooh, another 1018 opportunity, don’t mind if I do! I also have a air king 5504 soon to make its debut on the forum!
