Day-Date 40 “Olive”
Released in 2015, the Rolex Day-Date 40 reference 228235 was introduced as part of the brand’s 60th-anniversary celebration for the iconic Day-Date collection. Known as the “President’s Watch” for its association with influential leaders, the Day-Date has long been a symbol of prestige and accomplishment. This specific reference, executed in 18k pink gold, also known as Everose by Rolex, marked a significant evolution in the line. It featured a slightly slimmer and more refined case than its predecessors, with a diameter of 40mm, balancing modern proportions with timeless design. However, the standout feature was its rich olive green dial – a color chosen not only for its rarity but as a nod to prosperity and heritage, aligning perfectly with the celebratory milestone.
The exclusive olive green sunburst dial, offers a unique blend of vibrancy and elegance. It pairs beautifully with the warm tones of Rolex’s proprietary Everose gold, resulting in a sophisticated yet eye-catching aesthetic. The fluted bezel, a hallmark of the Day-Date, adds texture and depth, while the matching pink gold President bracelet ensures unparalleled comfort and continuity in design. Equipped with the Rolex Caliber 3255 movement, the watch represents the pinnacle of Rolex’s technical innovation, offering a 70-hour power reserve and remarkable precision, certified by the Superlative Chronometer standard. The addition of modern advancements like the Chronergy escapement reaffirms Rolex’s dedication to pushing the boundaries of horology while respecting its legacy.
