Rolex DAY-DATE 40 228238

CHAMPAGNE DIAL

The dial is the feature that makes Rolex watches stand out, as it gives them a unique identity and legibility. The hour markers of each Rolex dial are made of gold to keep their luster untouched by time, while the dial itself is designed and manufactured in Rolex facilities, mostly by hand, to perfect effect.

THE STRIPED WREATH

The ribbed Rolex bezel is its trademark. Originally, Oyster’s bezel ridges served a functional purpose, screwing the bezel onto the case to ensure the watch was watertight. They were therefore identical to the ridges on the case lid, which was screwed onto it with Rolex’s special tools to provide a seal. Over time, the ribbing became a decorative element and an authentic Rolex characteristic. Today, the ribbed bezel is its trademark, in gold on the Day-Date 40 model.

HOW TO SET THE
DAY-DATE 40

Rolex watches, synonymous with excellence and reliability, are designed for everyday use, and depending on the model, are ideal for various types of sports and other activities. These watches are designed to stand the test of time and are characterized by their special and timeless aesthetics. The Oyster Perpetual Day-Date 40 is the ultimate watch – a symbol of prestige. Watch the video to learn more about this model and how to set the time, date and day.

Day-Date has always been the epitome of prestige and innovation. Made exclusively of precious metals, it was the first calendar wristwatch to show, in addition to the date, the day of the week in full text, in a window on the dial. Rolex is launching the Oyster Perpetual Day-Date 40 in 950 platinum for the first time, an easily recognizable model thanks to its ice blue dial with ribbed bezel. A cornerstone of Rolex’s aesthetic heritage, this striking element, found only in certain models of the Classic series of the Oyster Perpetual collection and until now exclusively made of 18K gold, is now made of the most prestigious metal.
