“The chocolate dial with rose gold wears stunningly on the wrist. An incredibly refined colour combination.” Nick Baranga, Founder 

Even to those who know little about watches, Rolex’s flagship piece, the Day-Date, is a true legend and instantly recognisable. The first watch to ever display the day in full, it has been worn by several U.S. presidents, Fidel Castro, Tony Soprano and even the Dalai Lama. This particular iteration of the 228235 features a rich, chocolate dial with brushed sunray finish, a masterful technique that uses grooves in the dial to create delicate reflections of light. The warm, intense brown is paired with Everose gold hands and Roman Numeral hour markers, and together with the rich hue of the Everose gold 40mm case - a gorgeous, fade-proof patented Rolex pink, forged from their secret blend of gold, copper and platinum - the aesthetic is sophisticated and captivating. The sharp and soft contrasts of the fluted bezel and the Presidential bracelet combine with a mix of brushed and polished finishing, giving the watch a dazzling sheen from all angles. The upgraded cal.3255 movement is highly resistant to magnetism, with a 70-hour power reserve and optimised Chronergy escapement. An indulgent, sophisticated classic.
