Rolex Day-Date
The Rolex Day-Date arrived in 1956 as the first wristwatch to show both the date and the day of the week spelled out in full. It is made only in gold and platinum, and the President bracelet was designed for it. The current Day-Date 40 runs on calibre 3255 with a 70-hour power reserve. The platinum 228206 has the ice-blue dial that Rolex keeps for its platinum models. Every Rolex Day-Date we sell is inspected and comes with a 24-month warranty.

Pre-owned Rolex Day-Date – what we check
Our watchmaker opens every watch and measures its rate on a timegrapher. We match the serial and reference numbers with the papers, check that the dial, hands and bezel are original, and measure the case edges to see whether the watch has been over-polished. You get the result in writing.
Buying a used Rolex Day-Date – what to check
- President bracelet: its three-piece semi-circular links stretch with wear. Hold the watch flat and look for gaps and sagging.
- Crownclasp: the hidden clasp should close firmly with a clear click and sit flush with the bracelet.
- Ice-blue dial: Rolex keeps this dial for platinum. Check it matches the 228206 on the papers and has no marks.
- Day and date: test the change past midnight. The day disc spells the day in full and is available in several languages, so check which one you get.
- Calibre 3255 and case: ask for the timegrapher rate and check the platinum case edges for polishing.
