Reference 228239-0076 presents the Day-Date 40 in an 18kt white gold Oyster case measuring 40mm, featuring a monobloc middle case construction with a screw-down case back and screw-down Twinlock winding crown. A scratch-resistant sapphire crystal with a Cyclops lens over the date sits above the fixed bezel, and the watch maintains waterproofness to 100 metres / 330 feet.
The blue ombré dial is dressed with Roman numeral hour markers, lending a classic formality to the gradient color play. Powering the watch is the automatic Calibre 3255 movement from Manufacture Rolex, offering a precision of -2/+2 seconds per day after casing, a power reserve of approximately 70 hours, and bidirectional self-winding via a Perpetual rotor. The oscillator incorporates a paramagnetic blue Parachrom hairspring along with high-performance Paraflex shock absorbers.
The watch is fitted with an 18kt white gold President bracelet in a brushed and polished finish, composed of semi-circular three-piece links and secured by a concealed folding Crownclasp. This example is unworn and comes as a complete set including the original Rolex box and Rolex papers.
