About This Watch

The Rolex Datejust 31, in its 178248-0076 iteration, embodies the quiet authority of a timepiece that has defined luxury wristwatch design for generations. This reference, with its yellow gold domed case and black mother-of-pearl dial, merges the Datejust collection’s enduring legacy of elegance with contemporary refinement. The dial’s deep black hue, paired with the subtle iridescence of the mother-of-pearl, is framed by gem-set indexes that catch light with understated precision, while the stick hands trace the hour with a clarity that feels both mechanical and timeless. The case’s rounded, polished yellow gold form—slender at 31mm—echoes the Datejust’s original 1945 silhouette, a design that has remained a benchmark for balanced proportions and enduring style. At its core, the watch houses the Caliber 2235, a self-winding movement with a date display and a balance wheel oscillating at 28,800 vibrations per hour. Its chronometric certification and 72-hour power reserve underscore Rolex’s commitment to precision, even in the smallest details. The sapphire crystal, paired with a closed caseback, ensures durability without sacrificing the watch’s discreet sophistication. This piece is for the individual who values heritage without ostentation, a collector who appreciates the quiet confidence of a watch that needs no embellishment. It suits formal occasions with its polished restraint, yet its versatility allows it to accompany its owner through the demands of modern life, always
