About This Watch

The Rolex Datejust 31, in its Rolesor iteration of rose gold and stainless steel, marries the brand’s enduring commitment to horological tradition with a contemporary refinement that resonates with discerning collectors. This particular model, distinguished by its domed diamond dial in a striking shade of pink, embodies a rare harmony of elegance and precision. The dial’s gem-set indexes, meticulously arranged to reflect the brand’s legacy of craftsmanship, are complemented by stick hands that exude a quiet sophistication. The pink hue, a deliberate departure from the more conventional dial colors of the Datejust collection, adds a touch of individuality while maintaining the watch’s timeless character. Encased in a 31mm Oyster case with a closed back, the watch’s proportions are both modern and familiar, a testament to Rolex’s ability to evolve without sacrificing its heritage. At the heart of this timepiece lies the Caliber 2235, an automatic movement renowned for its reliability and precision. Its performance is underscored by the inclusion of a date display, a feature that has defined the Datejust collection since its introduction in 1945. The sapphire crystal, paired with a water resistance of 100 meters, ensures durability without compromising the watch’s delicate aesthetic. This model, with its subtle interplay of materials and colors, is suited for those who seek a watch that transcends trends—someone who values understated luxury and the quiet confidence

In Context

At 31 mm it is small by current standards, in the range most wristwatches occupied before cases began growing through the 1990s. The case back is closed, so the movement stays out of sight, and the sapphire crystal will resist everything short of deliberate abuse. 100 m is genuine swimming resistance — more than the shape of this watch suggests it would need.

The movement winds itself from the motion of your wrist. 48 hours of reserve is enough to set it down on Friday evening and find it still running on Monday. At 28,800 vph the seconds hand advances 8 times a second.

178341-0035 is one of 34 executions of the 178341 base reference. Underneath they are the same watch; what separates this one is a pink dial and a rose gold, stainless steel case.

The 2235 is the small Rolex automatic of the six-digit generation, a 20 mm movement with a date. It carried the Datejust 31 and the 26 mm Lady-Datejust from around 2000 until the 2236 replaced it. It powers 733 watches in this library. It has 31 jewels, a 48-hour reserve and a beat of 28,800 vph, and every one is a COSC chronometer. It is the same architecture as the [2236](/calibers/rolex-2236) that followed, without the silicon Syloxi hairspring and with seven hours less reserve; the [2236 piece](/blog/the-rolex-2236-the-most-common-movement-in-this-library) explains what changed. The library finds it almost entirely in the [Datejust 31](/brands/rolex/datejust-31): 682 references, the 1782xx generation, whose 45 base references and hundreds of dial variants make that collection the largest here. The 26 mm [Lady-Datejust](/brands/rolex/lady-datejust) of the 1791xx generation accounts for 29, the [Pearlmaster](/brands/rolex/pearlmaster) 29 mm and 34 mm for 19, and the 35 mm Yacht-Master for 3. A six-digit Datejust 31 reference is a 2235; the seven-digit one is a 2236, as the [reference-number guide](/blog/how-to-read-a-watch-reference-number) explains. The 2231 was its no-date sibling in the Oyster Perpetual, and the [3135](/calibers/rolex-3135) its counterpart in the 36 mm cases.

732 other watches in the library run the Rolex 2235.
