Description
The Rolex Day-Date 40 ref. 228206 (2015 – 2022) is a stunning example of Rolex’s commitment to luxury and precision. Unlike other platinum models in the collection, this watch features a smooth platinum bezel, which sets it apart as a rare and sought-after piece among collectors. The smooth bezel was previously considered a difficult design to produce commercially, making this version of the Day-Date 40 even more special.

In addition to its unique bezel, the Day-Date 40 boasts the iconic glacier blue dial, a feature exclusive to platinum Rolex models. This dial, paired with Roman numeral hour markers and stick markers, creates a timeless and sophisticated aesthetic. The watch also features the signature double calendar displays at 12 and 3 o’clock, further emphasizing its classic design. Powered by the robust and accurate Caliber 3255 movement, the Day-Date 40 is both a statement piece and a reliable timepiece.
