Rolex Day-Date 40 RG MOP Diamonds
Code: 228235Product detailed description
The Rolex Day-Date 40 is one of the most prestigious models from the Swiss watchmaker Rolex. Since its introduction in 1956, the Day-Date collection has been a symbol of luxury, elegance, and social status. It became famous as the first self-winding chronometer wristwatch to display both the date and the full name of the day of the week. Thanks to its popularity among world leaders and prominent figures, it earned the nickname “President.” This version, crafted from 18k Everose gold with a mother-of-pearl dial and diamond hour markers, represents an exceptionally elegant and exclusive interpretation of the legendary collection.
The 18k Everose gold case has a diameter of 40 mm and is complemented by a distinctive fluted bezel made of the same material. The watch’s centerpiece is the Mother of Pearl (MOP) dial, whose natural structure creates unique color reflections that shift depending on the angle of the light. The dial is adorned with ten baguette-cut diamond hour markers, which underscore the luxurious character of this configuration. At the 12 o’clock position is an arched window displaying the full name of the day of the week, while the date at the 3 o’clock position is highlighted by the iconic Cyclops lens. The watch is fitted with the prestigious President bracelet in 18k Everose gold, featuring distinctive half-round three-link segments and a concealed Crownclasp folding clasp. The Oyster case construction with a Twinlock screw-down crown ensures water resistance to 100 meters.
Inside, it is powered by the automatic in-house Rolex Caliber 3255, equipped with the highly efficient Chronergy escapement, a blue paramagnetic Parachrom hairspring, and Paraflex shock absorbers. The movement offers a practical day-of-the-week and date display with instant correction capability and features a power reserve of approximately 70 hours. The Superlative Chronometer certification guarantees an accuracy of −2/+2 seconds per day after assembly, which meets Rolex’s highest standards.
The Rolex Day-Date 40, featuring a combination of Everose gold, a natural mother-of-pearl dial, and baguette-cut diamond hour markers, represents an exceptionally elegant interpretation of this iconic collection. The unique play of light on the mother-of-pearl, the precisely set diamonds, and the distinctive President bracelet come together to create a timeless timepiece that combines traditional watchmaking craftsmanship with the highest level of luxury.
