DayDate 40

In the eyes of many, the Day-Date has long been the very model of sophistication and originality. It was the first calendar wristwatch to display both the date and the day of the week in a window on the dial, and it was fashioned entirely of precious metals. In a first for Rolex, the Oyster Perpetual Day-Date 40 in 950 platinum will include a fluted bezel to complement its instantly identifiable ice-blue display. This distinctive component, formerly only available in 18 ct gold and now in the most prestigious metal available, is a cornerstone of Rolex's aesthetic history and is present on select Classic models in the Oyster Perpetual line.
