RolexDay-Date 40

Offered by a UK-trade seller, this Rolex Day-Date 40 is accompanied by its outer and display box, warranty card, sleeve, booklets and swing tag. Presented in mint condition, the watch is consistent with the vendor’s ‘AA’ grading. Rolex’s 5-year international guarantee covers the watch until 2026.

Constructed from rose gold, the reference 228235 we see here brings one of Rolex’s staples into the modern-day. Its 40mm case, fluted bezel and historically significant ‘President’ bracelet set the foundations for a watch that displays prestige and status unlike any other.

The 'sundust' dial and baguette diamond markers add to the luxuriousness of the watch and perfectly suit its personality. Beating inside is the calibre 3255, an automatic mechanical movement that is chronometer-certified and tested after casing to +2 to -2 seconds per day.

First launched in 1956 and the world’s first chronometer wristwatch that could display the week’s date and day through windows in its dial, the Day-Date has become synonymous with luxury as a flagship model in Rolex’s catalogue.
