About this watch

The automatic Caliber 2236 movement inside this unworn Rolex Datejust 278343 represents a significant leap in manufacturing precision, featuring a silicon Syloxi hairspring that enhances chronometric performance while powering the signature instantaneous date change mechanism. Rolex's mastery of two-tone construction reaches its apex in this 31mm yellow gold case paired with the iconic five-link Jubilee bracelet, creating a harmonious blend of precious metal warmth against polished steel. The dark grey dial provides a sophisticated canvas for the diamond-set Roman numeral at six o'clock, while the domed diamond bezel adds vertical dimension through its precisely graduated gemstone setting. This reference showcases Rolex's contemporary approach to traditional dress watch proportions, maintaining the collection's heritage while incorporating modern materials and finishing techniques.
