Housed in a polished stainless steel round case measuring 36mm, the Datejust 36 features a fixed domed bezel and a screw-down crown. The scratch-resistant sapphire crystal protects a black dial dressed with applied polished 18kt white gold index hour markers and 18kt white gold hands, both carrying a luminous fill. A date window sits at 3 o'clock beneath a cyclops magnifying lens, while a fine minutes and seconds track runs along the dial perimeter.
Inside beats the Rolex caliber 3235, an automatic movement oscillating at 28,800 vph with 31 jewels and an approximate power reserve of 70 hours. The movement incorporates a paramagnetic blue Parachrom hairspring, a Chronergy escapement, and Paraflex shock absorbers. It is COSC certified before casing, then further tested by Rolex after casing to a standard of +/- 2 seconds per day, earning Superlative Chronometer status.
The watch is presented on a stainless steel Oyster bracelet and comes complete with its original box and papers, making it a compelling choice for collectors and enthusiasts alike.
