Rolex Day-Date 40 President White Gold and Olive Green dial

The 228239 Day-Date in 18k white gold stands as the ultimate expression of horological prestige, featuring the captivating olive green sunburst dial that Rolex reserves exclusively for its most distinguished timepieces. At its core beats the revolutionary Caliber 3255, a movement that redefines precision with 14 patents and a remarkable -2/+2 seconds per day accuracy—twice as stringent as COSC chronometer standards. This Superlative Chronometer delivers an impressive 70-hour power reserve, achieved through the innovative Chronergy escapement that provides 15% greater efficiency. The 40mm white gold case exemplifies refined proportions, perfectly balanced between presence and wearability. The signature fluted bezel catches light with architectural precision, its sharp roof-like teeth creating a mesmerizing play of reflections that only white gold can achieve. Beneath the scratch-resistant sapphire crystal with Cyclops lens magnification, the olive green dial displays Roman numerals crafted in white gold, offering sophisticated contrast against the sunburst finish. The iconic President bracelet elevates comfort to an art form. And the concealed Crownclasp maintains the bracelet's seamless aesthetic while providing secure daily wear. This is the bracelet that gave the Day-Date its presidential nickname—a testament to its association with power and achievement. Beyond displaying hours, minutes, and seconds, this masterpiece presents both the day spelled out in full at 12 o'clock and the date at 3 o'clock—features that made the Day-Date revolutionary upon its 1956 debut. Our offering is in superb condition and comes in full set of boxes and papers. Ticking per specs. Covered by our limited warranty of 1 year, starting on the date of purchase.
