Rolex Day-Date 228236-0003 Black Bright Dial 40mm Platinum Men’s Watch
The Rolex Day-Date 40 Ref. 228236-0003 is crafted entirely in 950 platinum, making it one of the most prestigious offerings in Rolex’s lineup. Its 40 mm case is paired with a sunburst black dial, delivering a refined contrast that emphasizes its elegance and exclusivity.
This model features a fluted platinum bezel, a hallmark design element that adds texture and depth. The dial is adorned with 10 baguette-cut diamonds as hour markers, set in white gold, enhancing the timepiece’s luxurious feel without overpowering its sophisticated appearance. The full day of the week is displayed at 12 o’clock, while the date window at 3 o’clock is magnified by the Cyclops lens—ensuring clarity and classic Day-Date layout.
Powering the watch is Rolex’s advanced Caliber 3255, a self-winding mechanical movement optimized for precision and efficiency. It offers an approximate 70-hour power reserve and meets the Superlative Chronometer standard of ±2 seconds per day. Innovations like the Chronergy escapement and Parachrom hairspring, along with other in-house advancements, enhance magnetic resistance, energy efficiency, and durability.
The watch is completed with the President bracelet in matching platinum, featuring semi-circular three-piece links for refined comfort and visual harmony. The concealed Crownclasp maintains sleek continuity along the wrist, preserving the watch’s elegant silhouette.
