Material: 950 platinum

Lunette with diamonds
One of the most striking elements of this model is the lunette set with brilliant-cut diamonds. Each of these gemstones is precisely selected and set to maximize its beauty and brilliance. This lunette not only enhances the luxurious look of the watch, but also underlines its exclusivity.
Dial with ice blue colour
The Day-Date 40 reference 228396TBR watch features a dial in ice blue, which is characteristic only of platinum models. This colour gives the watch a sophisticated and modern look. The indices and hands are made of white gold and covered with a luminescent Chromalight coating, which guarantees perfect legibility in any lighting conditions.
Mechanism: Calibre 3255
At the heart of this model beats the Rolex Kalibr 3255 automatic movement, a symbol of precision and reliability. This movement is protected by the Superlative Chronometer certificate, which guarantees a deviation of only ±2 seconds per day. The Kalibr 3255 is equipped with a blue Parachrom thread, which is ten times more resistant to shocks, and a power reserve of up to 70 hours.
Iconic Day-Date function
The Day-Date watch was first introduced in 1956 and became the first wristwatch to display the date and the full name of the day of the week on the dial. This model continues the tradition and offers the option to choose from a wide range of languages to display the day.
President bracelet
The watch is fitted with the iconic President bracelet, which was specially designed for Day-Date models. This bracelet ensures maximum wearing comfort and at the same time looks extremely elegant. It is made of platinum links and features a hidden Crownclasp clasp that does not interfere with the overall design.
