An icon of prestige, craftsmanship and timeless luxury.
We are delighted to offer this magnificent Rolex Oyster Perpetual Day-Date 40, reference 228235, beautifully crafted in solid 18ct Everose gold and featuring the highly sought-after olive-green dial with elegant Roman numeral hour markers.
Widely regarded as one of the most prestigious watches ever produced by Rolex, the Day-Date has long been associated with success, influence and exceptional watchmaking. Affectionately known as the “President”, this legendary timepiece has adorned the wrists of world leaders, influential figures and collectors for generations.
The combination of Rolex’s exclusive Everose gold, the rich olive-green dial and the iconic President bracelet makes this particular reference one of the most recognisable and desirable configurations in the modern Day-Date collection.
The striking olive-green dial is unquestionably one of the defining features of this watch.
Its beautiful sunray finish captures and reflects light from different angles, shifting between deep green and warmer olive tones. The applied Roman numeral hour markers, finished in a complementary rose-gold tone, provide an elegant contrast while maintaining the classic sophistication for which the Day-Date is renowned.
At 12 o’clock sits the distinctive day-of-the-week aperture, displaying the day in full, while the date window at 3 o’clock features Rolex’s signature Cyclops magnification lens.
The olive-green dial was introduced to the Everose gold Day-Date 40 collection in 2016, marking the 60th anniversary of the Day-Date. It has since become one of the most celebrated dial and precious-metal combinations in the range.
The substantial 40mm Oyster case is manufactured entirely from Rolex’s proprietary 18ct Everose gold, an exclusive rose-gold alloy developed to retain its distinctive warm colour and lustre over time.
Surrounding the dial is the beautifully executed 18ct Everose gold fluted bezel, one of Rolex’s most recognisable design signatures.
The matching solid-gold President bracelet is a masterpiece in its own right. Featuring the famous semi-circular three-piece links, it offers exceptional comfort, a reassuring presence on the wrist and a seamlessly integrated concealed folding Crownclasp.
The result is a watch that feels every bit as impressive as it looks, combining understated elegance with the unmistakable presence of a solid-gold Rolex.
Beneath the case sits the technically sophisticated Rolex manufacture Calibre 3255, a self-winding mechanical movement representing generations of Swiss watchmaking expertise.
This Superlative Chronometer-certified movement offers outstanding precision, reliability and efficiency, with an impressive power reserve of approximately 70 hours.
Featuring Rolex’s advanced Chronergy escapement, blue Parachrom hairspring and high-performance Paraflex shock absorbers, the Calibre 3255 has been engineered to deliver exceptional performance in everyday use.
Rolex’s Superlative Chronometer standard specifies an accuracy of approximately -2/+2 seconds per day after casing.
First introduced in 1956, the Rolex Day-Date made horological history as the first self-winding, waterproof chronometer wristwatch to display both the date and the day of the week written in full.
Its reputation as the ultimate statement of achievement was quickly established, and nearly seven decades later, it remains the flagship expression of Rolex’s traditional watchmaking craftsmanship.
Unlike many other Rolex collections, the Day-Date has always been produced exclusively in precious metals, reinforcing its position at the very pinnacle of the brand’s collection.
The reference 228235 brings that remarkable heritage into the modern era, combining the timeless design of the original President with contemporary engineering, a beautifully proportioned 40mm case and one of the most desirable dials Rolex has ever created.
This outstanding example is accompanied by its original Rolex presentation box, warranty card, accompanying paperwork and Rolex swing tag, offering the reassurance and desirability of a complete set.
For collectors and enthusiasts alike, the presence of the original accessories is an important consideration, particularly when purchasing a prestigious precious-metal Rolex.
Few watches command the same immediate recognition and respect as the Rolex Day-Date President.
The combination of solid 18ct Everose gold, the iconic fluted bezel, the legendary President bracelet and the breathtaking olive-green dial creates an exceptional timepiece that is equally suited to formal occasions and everyday luxury.
This is not simply a prestigious Rolex; it is a modern interpretation of one of the most important luxury watches ever made.
Offered by Fine Watch Club for £38,500, this is a wonderful opportunity to acquire one of the most desirable contemporary Rolex Day-Date configurations, complete with its original box, papers, warranty card and tag.
We offer complimentary fully insured UK delivery, with secure worldwide shipping also available.
