Since its introduction in 1956, the Rolex Day-Date has remained Rolex’s ultimate expression of prestige. As the first wristwatch to display the day of the week spelled out in full, it has established itself over the decades as one of the most iconic and exclusive models produced by the Geneva manufacture. Reserved exclusively for precious metals, the Day-Date occupies a unique position in the world of horology, standing as a timeless symbol of success, influence and refinement.
This reference 228236-0006 represents one of the most desirable configurations within the contemporary collection. Crafted in 950 platinum, it is immediately distinguished by its magnificent ice-blue dial, a colour reserved exclusively for Rolex platinum models. The diamond-set baguette hour markers further enhance the elegance and exceptional presence of the watch while preserving the understated and architectural balance that defines the Day-Date 40.
Its 40 mm case features perfectly balanced proportions, complemented by the iconic platinum fluted bezel and the President bracelet, arguably one of the most recognisable bracelet designs in the history of watchmaking. On the wrist, the unique density of platinum delivers a feeling of substance, quality and presence that is truly unmatched.
This 2025 example is offered unworn and accompanied by its complete original set, including box, papers and accessories. A highly sought-after configuration bringing together the most emblematic design elements of the modern Day-Date in its most prestigious and exclusive form.
