Rolex Datejust 31 – Reference 278384RBR-0037
Introducing the distinguished Rolex Datejust 31 with reference 278384RBR-0037, an exquisite timepiece that epitomizes elegance, precision and understated luxury. Combining the finest materials and Rolex’s legendary craftsmanship, this watch is a revelation in a compact 31 mm format.
Case Materials
The case of the 278384RBR-0037 is rendered in White Rolesor, the signature Rolex blend of Oystersteel and 18 ct white gold — delivering both structural robustness and luminous refinement. The bezel is fully diamond-set, an elegant halo of precious stones that accentuates the dial’s radiance and elevates the silhouette with a shimmering bezel ring. The watch is water resistant to 100 m, safeguarded by a screw-down crown and a solid caseback — a hallmark of Rolex’s Oyster architecture.
Dial Display
This reference features a bright blue sunray dial with a fine radial finish, allowing light to dance across the surface and offering variable depth depending on viewing angle. The hour markers are classic Roman numerals, lending a timeless, formal character to the face. At 3 o’clock lies the signature date aperture, magnified by the Cyclops lens for effortless legibility. The dial is protected by scratch-resistant sapphire crystal.
Movement Performance
Under the hood, the 278384RBR-0037 is powered by Rolex’s in-house Calibre 2236, a self-winding mechanical movement designed for precision and stability. It offers a power reserve of approximately 55 hours. Among its refined features are the instantaneous date change, stop-seconds function for accurate time-setting, and the Syloxi silicon hairspring with Paraflex shock absorbers — technological enhancements ensuring robust performance. Rolex guarantees the movement runs within −2/+2 seconds per day (after casing), aligning with its Superlative Chronometer standard.
Bracelet Wearability
The watch is fitted on a Jubilee bracelet in Oystersteel — five-piece links provide a supple, comfortable fit on the wrist. Clasp design is the concealed folding Crownclasp, offering seamless integration and a polished, uninterrupted aesthetic. At just 31 mm diameter, the watch balances feminine elegance with wearability, suitable both for daily use and formal occasions.
Why This Reference Stands Apart
- The diamond-set bezel adds an element of refined glamour without overwhelming the design.
- The bright blue sunray finish dial contrasts beautifully against the white Rolesor case, giving visual depth and character.
- The compact 31 mm profile makes it ideal for wrists seeking balance between statement and subtlety.
- Built with the Calibre 2236 and enhanced materials (Syloxi hairspring, Paraflex), it delivers long-term accuracy and resilience.
- Rolex’s signature Cyclops lens ensures the date remains instantly readable at a glance.
The Rolex Datejust 31 ref. 278384RBR-0037 is a masterful blend of artistry, technical excellence, and elegant proportions. It appeals to those who demand both aesthetic refinement and uncompromising mechanical integrity — a true collectible and daily companion rolled into one.
