About this watch

The Rolex Day-Date 40 Platinum - Baguette / Blue Roman is a masterpiece of luxury watchmaking, boasting exceptional craftsmanship and timeless design. This iconic model has adorned the wrists of world leaders and influential figures since its introduction in 1956. The use of platinum gives it a substantial feel on the wrist, while the stunning blue sunburst dial is a work of art. At its heart lies the Rolex Caliber 3255, an automatic movement that raises the bar for precision with exceptional accuracy and a power reserve of up to three days. With a frequency of 28,800 vibrations per hour and 31 jewels, this movement is designed for longevity. The optimized blue Parachrom hairspring can withstand shocks up to ten times better than a traditional hairspring. This watch embodies the essence of Rolex - a commitment to excellence, precision, and style that stands the test of time. Whether you're an ardent watch collector or someone who appreciates the finer things in life, this timepiece is sure to impress.
