About this watch

The Rolex Datejust 31 is a quintessential luxury watch that embodies the brand's legacy. With its sleek design, luxurious materials, and exceptional movement, it checks all the boxes for a high-end timepiece. The Yellow Gold used in this watch isn't just any gold; it's a hallmark of luxury, crafted in-house by Rolex to ensure purity and durability. The stunning Mother of Pearl (MOP) dial adds an ethereal quality, shimmering under various light conditions. Coupled with stick hands and Roman numeral indexes, the overall aesthetic is both sophisticated and functional. The fluted bezel enhances the watch's water resistance while adding a distinct texture and reflecting light in a captivating way. At its core lies the Rolex Caliber 2235, a self-winding mechanical movement that has passed rigorous testing by COSC, ensuring precision and performance. With a frequency of 28,800 beats per hour and a power reserve of 48 hours, this watch remains accurate and reliable. The Datejust 31 is not just about looks; its functionality includes hours, minutes, seconds, and the all-important date feature, displayed in a window at 3 o'clock, magnified by a Cyclops lens on the sapphire crystal. With a water resistance of up to 100 meters, this watch can withstand splashes and brief immersions, making it a practical choice for everyday wear. The President bracelet is a signature of this model, featuring three links that provide a comfortable fit, while the clasp ensures security and ease of use.
