About This Watch
The Rolex Datejust 31, in its yellow gold iteration with a fluted bezel and champagne dial, embodies the quiet authority of a timepiece that has defined elegance for generations. Introduced in 1945, the Datejust collection established itself as a benchmark for luxury watches, merging precision with a design that remains instantly recognizable. This reference, with its 31-millimeter case, strikes a balance between the classic proportions of earlier models and the refined subtlety of modern horology. The champagne dial, finished with a sunburst pattern, exudes warmth and depth, while the stick indexes and hands contribute to a legibility that is both functional and understated. The fluted bezel, a hallmark of the Datejust, adds a tactile and visual contrast to the yellow gold case, which is polished to a luster that only enhances its presence on the wrist. At its heart lies the Caliber 2236, a self-winding movement certified as a chronometer by the COSC, ensuring accuracy within strict tolerances. This mechanical heart, with its 38-hour power reserve, operates beneath a sapphire crystal and a closed case back, emphasizing the watch’s commitment to durability and discretion. Water resistance to 100 meters further underscores its versatility, though it is ultimately a timepiece
