rolex, Day-Date Yellow Gold White Dial 40mm, 228238-0042

The Rolex Day-Date 40 (ref. 228238-0042) refines the iconic Presidential lineage with enhanced proportions and technical updates, introduced as the successor to the Day-Date II. Rendered here in luminous yellow gold with a stark white dial, it delivers sharp contrast and classic elegance in equal measure.

Its clean white dial is marked by applied gold hour markers and the signature day and date apertures at 12 and 3 o’clock, respectively. The calibre 3255 movement inside represents Rolex’s next-generation engineering, offering a 70-hour power reserve, Superlative chronometer certification, and resistance to magnetic fields and shocks. Water-resistant to 100 m, it retains robust wearability beneath the refined exterior. As a core part of the modern Day-Date catalogue, ref. 228238-0042 balances legacy appeal with contemporary precision—reaffirming its place as a hallmark of Rolex’s enduring presence in prestige watchmaking., alarm: False annualCalendar: False bezelMaterial: Yellow Gold braceletColor: Gold braceletMaterial: Yellow Gold calibre: Calibre 3255 calibreDiameter: calibreThickness: caseBack: caseDiameter: 40 caseMaterial: Yellow Gold caseShape: Round caseThickness: chronograph: False clasp: Folding Clasp claspMaterial: Yellow Gold constantForce: False crystal: Sapphire date: False dayOfTheWeek: False deadbeatSeconds: False dialColor: White dialDetails: dialFinishing: dialMarkers: Roman Numerals dualtime: False equationOfTime: False exoticSkin: False flybackChronograph: False frequency: functions: Hours, Minutes, Seconds, Date, Day, Chronometer gender: Men gmt: False grandeSonnerie: False hours: True jumpingHour: False leapYear: False lugWidth: minuteRepeater: False minutes: False month: False moonPhase: False movementMechanism: Selfwinding noOfJewels: 31 noOfParts: openWorkedSkeleton: False passingStrike: False perpetualCalendar: False powerReserve: False powerReserveHours: 70 satelliteWanderingHours: False seconds: False splitSecondsChronograph: False tourbillon: False waterResistance: 100m worldtime: False yearDiscontinued: yearReleased: 2015
