About This Watch

The Rolex Datejust 31 178288-0010 stands as a testament to the enduring marriage of precision and elegance that defines the Datejust collection, introduced in 1945 as a milestone in horology. This particular iteration, housed in 18k yellow gold, marries the timeless allure of the Datejust’s minimalist design with a refined touch of opulence. The dial, a luminous mother-of-pearl surface, captures light with a natural iridescence, while the gem-set indexes and bezel add a discreet yet unmistakable air of sophistication. The sapphire crystal, paired with a closed caseback, ensures both clarity and protection, reflecting the Oyster case’s legacy of durability and water resistance to 100 meters. At its heart lies the Caliber 2235, a self-winding mechanical movement with a date display, embodying Rolex’s commitment to in-house innovation and reliability.
