At 40 mm, the Oyster case of this Day-Date 40 is crafted entirely in 18K white gold and frames a white mother of pearl dial whose natural composition makes every example one of a kind. A diamond-set bezel encircles the case, adding brilliance that complements the dial's inherent luminosity. Sapphire crystal with a Cyclops lens sits above the date display, while 100 m water resistance underlines the watch's practical construction.
Inside runs the Rolex Calibre 3255, a perpetual, mechanical, self-winding manufacture movement delivering a power reserve of approximately 70 hours. Hour and minute functions are presented with the day indicated at 12 o'clock and the date at 3 o'clock, a layout that has long defined the Day-Date's identity.
The watch is worn on an 18K white gold President bracelet secured by a concealed Crownclasp. This example is offered in new condition and comes complete with its original box and original papers.
