Housed in a 36 mm Oystersteel case, this Datejust is built around the monobloc middle case construction with a screw-down case back and screw-down Twinlock winding crown, delivering water resistance to 100 metres. A scratch-resistant sapphire crystal with a Cyclops lens over the date window sits above the black dial, which features diamonds set individually in 18 kt gold settings. The bezel is likewise set with diamonds, giving the watch a layered brilliance from every angle.
The Oystersteel Jubilee bracelet is composed of five-piece links and fastens via a folding Oysterclasp equipped with an Easylink 5 mm comfort extension link — a practical detail that adds wearability without altering the silhouette. Powering the watch is the Calibre 3235, a perpetual mechanical self-winding movement from Rolex with bidirectional winding via a Perpetual rotor and a power reserve of approximately 70 hours. The oscillator features a paramagnetic blue Parachrom hairspring and high-performance Paraflex shock absorbers.
The movement carries Superlative Chronometer certification — reflecting both COSC testing and Rolex's own certification after casing — with a precision rating of -2/+2 seconds per day. Functions include centre hour, minute, and seconds hands alongside instantaneous day and date display, secure rapid-setting, and stop-seconds for precise time adjustment. Reference 116244-0014 is a considered choice for those drawn to the Datejust's enduring 36 mm proportions with added diamond detail.
