Rolex Day-Date in 18k rose gold with an olive green dial featuring Roman numerals dial

Trap rapper and watch phantom Sfera Ebbasta of Italy is wearing the latest addition to his collection: a 40mm Rolex Day-Date in 18k rose gold with an olive green dial featuring Roman numerals dial, a reference that was made for the 60th anniversary of this model.

The Rolex Day-Date – better known as the ‘Rolex Presidential,’ is nowadays available in 26 different languages, and its heritage dates back to 1956 when the model was first introduced to the market. Back then, only the case width of 36mm was available.

Overall Watch Description

The dial is the Rolex Day-Date’s distinguishing characteristic, the element most accountable for its identification and legibility. This dial is developed and made in-house, primarily by hand, to guarantee excellence. Besides, it features hourly markings crafted from 18 ct gold to eliminate tarnishing.

The Rolex Day-Date has now been given a vibrant new dial in olive green, Rolex’s signature color, to commemorate its 60th anniversary. This special edition is only offered in 18ct rose gold and features the model’s signature fluted bezel, which has been linked with the brand since 1956.

The Day-Date watch’s disassembled Roman numerals are composed of 18 ct gold as well as a refined piece by piece on both sides. To guarantee a level of quality and projection that no device could attain, the craftsman works in the darkness with just a light pointed at the element.

The Day-Oyster Date’s casing is fully waterproof to a depth of 100 meters, making it a paragon of toughness and refinement (330 feet). The watch’s central casing is made of pure rose gold. The case back is securely screwed down with a unique tool, which only Rolex technicians may use to reach the movement, which is edged with delicate fluting.

The winding crown, which is equipped with the Twinlock double waterproofing mechanism, is securely fastened to the casing. The crystal is made of nearly scratch-resistant sapphire and has a Cyclops lens positioned at 3 o’clock for quick date viewing. The waterproof Oyster casing best protects the Day-Date elevated movement.

Rolex bracelets, as well as clasps, require extensive technology in their design, creation, and production, as well as the rigorous tests they must pass. Aesthetic adjustments by the human eye, like all other elements of the timepiece, ensure flawless beauty.

The President bracelet was designed in 1956 for the release of the Oyster Perpetual Day-Date and featured semi-circular three-piece links. It is always crafted of specially picked valuable metals and symbolizes the pinnacle of elegance and convenience. For an ultimate functional and aesthetic finish to this exquisite bracelet, an innovative hidden connection below the bezel offers complete visual continuity between the bracelet as well as the casing.

In addition, the Rolex Day-Date features a new-generation movement, caliber 3255, that was wholly designed and constructed by Rolex for exceptional performance. This self-winding mechanical movement is at the cutting edge of watchmaking technology. With 14 patents, it is the pinnacle of Rolex technology, offering major improvements in precision, power reserve, shock and magnetic resistance, simplicity of use, and dependability.
