About this watch

The Rolex Day-Date 40 Platinum / Grey (model 228206-0045) stands out as a beacon of horological excellence, featuring a platinum case, sunburst grey dial, and the renowned Caliber 3255 automatic movement. This watch exudes sophistication with its perfectly proportioned 40mm round case, striking a balance between elegance and presence on the wrist. The stick and dot indexes provide a minimalist yet classy touch, ensuring legibility without overwhelming the overall aesthetic. At the heart of the Day-Date 40 is the Rolex Caliber 3255, an automatic movement that embodies the brand's commitment to precision, boasting accuracy and reliability with its new Chronergy escapement. With a power reserve of approximately three days, this watch ensures that you won't find yourself reaching for a winder every evening. Whether you wear it daily or set it aside for the weekend, it’s ready to go when you are. The Rolex Day-Date 40 Platinum / Grey excels in both performance and accuracy, featuring an optimized blue Parachrom hairspring that is up to ten times more accurate than traditional hairsprings in the event of shocks.
