Description
Since its introduction in 2015, the 40mm Day-Date marked Rolex’s first size expansion of the presidential flagship in nearly four decades, with the 228236 representing the pinnacle platinum iteration featuring an ice-blue diamond dial reserved exclusively for this precious metal. This unworn example showcases the manufacturer’s mastery of contrasts—the cool brilliance of the ice-blue backdrop against the warm sparkle of diamond hour markers, all housed within a 40mm platinum case that catches light through its iconic fluted bezel. The Rolex 228236 continues the Day-Date’s tradition as the choice of world leaders and industry titans, now with contemporary proportions that better suit modern wrists while maintaining the gravitas of its smaller predecessor.
