Reference 228236-0024 houses a 40 mm Oyster case crafted entirely in platinum, featuring a fluted bezel and a scratch-resistant sapphire crystal with a Cyclops lens positioned over the date window. The monobloc middle case is completed by a screw-down case back and a screw-down Twinlock winding crown, providing water resistance to 100 metres / 330 feet.
The ice blue ombré dial is rendered with Roman numeral hour markers, offering a gradual shift in tone that gives the piece a distinctive depth. Day and date displays appear in separate apertures with instantaneous, rapid-setting functionality, while a stop-seconds mechanism allows for precise time adjustment.
Power comes from the self-winding Calibre 3255 Manufacture Rolex movement, delivering a precision rating of -2/+2 seconds per day after casing, COSC certified, and an approximately 70-hour power reserve. A paramagnetic blue Parachrom hairspring and Paraflex shock absorbers contribute to the movement's resilience. The platinum President bracelet with semi-circular three-piece links and a concealed folding Crownclasp completes this 2024 Day-Date 40.
