Reference 228238-0002 brings together a 40mm round case crafted in 18K yellow gold with a screw-down crown and scratch-resistant sapphire crystal. The fixed fluted bezel frames a silver-tone dial where yellow gold-tone Roman numeral hour markers and matching yellow gold-tone hands provide a refined, legible layout.
Powering the watch is an automatic movement that drives a full day, date, hour, minute, and second display. The 18K yellow gold President bracelet fastens securely with a fold clasp, lending the piece its characteristic bearing on the wrist.
From 2021 and presented in used condition, this Day-Date 40 is accompanied by its original box and papers — making it a well-documented example of one of Rolex's most storied references.
