Rolex Day-Date 40 Reference 228239 Product Description

The Rolex Oyster Perpetual Day-Date 40 reference 228239 expresses the established elegance of the Day-Date collection through the understated character of 18 ct white gold. Its refined metallic sheen changes subtly with the light, offering the distinction of a precious-metal watch without an overly conspicuous appearance.

The watch brings together a full day display, a date window and the iconic President bracelet within balanced 40 mm proportions. Its clear calendar layout presents essential daily information at a glance, while the flowing case profile and semi-circular bracelet links provide a comfortable fit. A variety of dial, hour-marker and gem-setting configurations allows the reference to range from restrained and formal to more expressive and luxurious.
