Description
The Rolex Day-Date 40 in reference 228235 is one of the most coveted configurations in the entire Day-Date collection. The olive green sunburst dial shifts in appearance from a deep forest green to a vibrant olive tone depending on how light plays across its surface — a living, breathing dial that looks different on every wrist.
The 40mm case is crafted from Rolex’s proprietary Everose gold, an 18kt rose gold alloy developed in-house that maintains its lustrous pink hue over time. The warm rose gold pairs with the earthy olive dial in a combination that is both bold and effortlessly elegant.
The dial features Everose gold hands and Roman numeral hour markers, while the iconic President bracelet in matching Everose gold completes the look with the refinement this watch deserves.
At the heart of the watch beats the Caliber 3255, offering a power reserve of approximately 70 hours and water resistance to 100 metres. The day display at 12 o’clock spells out the full day of the week, while the date at 3 o’clock is magnified by Rolex’s Cyclops lens — both changing instantaneously at midnight.
