Details & Specifications
Description:
The Rolex Day-Date 36 is one of the most iconic and prestigious timepieces in Rolex’s lineup, often referred to as the “President” for its association with world leaders and influential figures. First introduced in 1956, it was the first wristwatch to display both the date and the day of the week spelled out in full, setting a new standard for functionality and elegance.
This example features a classic black dial, offering a timeless and highly versatile aesthetic that pairs effortlessly with the watch’s refined case proportions. The Day-Date’s signature layout, with the day aperture at 12 o’clock and the date at 3 o’clock beneath the Cyclops lens, ensures both practicality and instant recognisability.
Powered by Rolex’s in-house automatic movement, the Day-Date delivers exceptional precision, reliability, and a smooth wearing experience. This piece has been fitted with newly serviced dial and hands, ensuring a fresh and clean presentation, and is paired with a Rolex replacement leather strap along with its original Rolex buckle, offering a more understated and dress-focused configuration compared to the traditional bracelet.
A true symbol of status and timeless design, the Day-Date 36 remains one of the most enduring icons in watchmaking.
This example is presented in excellent condition and is offered as watch and box
