Rolex Datejust 36 Datejust 36 Stainless Steel - Everose - Fluted / Chocolate - Diamond / Jubilee

The Rolex Datejust 36 126231-0053 debuted in 2026 as an Everose Rolesor configuration of the Datejust collection, combining the 36 mm Oyster case with a chocolate dial set with diamonds, a fluted bezel, and a Jubilee bracelet. In this reference, the familiar Datejust formula is retained, but the balance of colours and materials gives the watch a warmer and more jewellery-oriented character than more restrained steel or non-set versions. Its Oyster case measures 36 mm in diameter and follows the established architecture of the Datejust line, with a monobloc middle case, screw-down case back, and Twinlock screw-down winding crown. The case is executed in Everose Rolesor, Rolex’s combination of Oystersteel and Everose gold, and is fitted with a fluted bezel in Everose gold. That bezel remains one of the defining visual elements of the Datejust, giving the watch a more formal and immediately recognisable profile than domed-bezel versions in the same family. The scratch-resistant sapphire crystal incorporates the Cyclops lens over the date, and water resistance is rated to 100 metres. The dial is executed in chocolate with a sunray finish and set with diamonds in 18 ct gold settings. The radial brushing of the sunray surface produces shifting reflections across the dial, while the darker brown tone works closely with the warmth of the Everose elements in the case and bracelet. In this reference, the diamond-set indexes add a more decorative note without changing the familiar Datejust layout, which remains centred on the display of hours, minutes, seconds, and the date at 3 o’clock. Inside is Rolex calibre 3235, a self-winding manufacture movement with centre hours, minutes, and seconds, instantaneous date with rapid setting, stop-seconds for precise time setting, and a power reserve of approximately 70 hours. It runs at 28,800 vibrations per hour and is equipped with a blue Parachrom hairspring and Paraflex shock absorbers. As in other Datejust references using this calibre, the movement combines the collection’s everyday date function with Rolex’s current automatic architecture. The watch is fitted with a Jubilee bracelet in Everose Rolesor, with five-piece links, a folding Oysterclasp, and the Easylink comfort extension system allowing approximately 5 mm of adjustment. In this configuration, the bracelet and fluted bezel reinforce the Datejust’s most traditional visual language, while the chocolate sunray dial and diamond-set markers shift the tone toward a richer and more ornamental presentation. The result is a Datejust 36 that remains firmly rooted in the established identity of the collection, yet stands apart through its particular combination of colour, gem-setting, and metal.
