About this watch
Rolex 950 Platinum Day-Date 40 Watch - Smooth Bezel - Black Index Dial - President Bracelet - 228206 bkip
Beneath the commanding presence of 950 platinum and the stark elegance of a black index dial lies Rolex's caliber 3255, a perpetual, self-winding movement that earned the Swiss chronometer certification and delivers a 70-hour power reserve through its Chronergy escapement. The 40mm platinum case of this Day-Date reference 228206 represents the apex of Rolex's precious metal offerings, weighing substantially more than its gold counterparts while maintaining the collection's signature proportions. This unworn example pairs its obsidian dial surface with polished platinum hour markers, creating a study in contrast that defines contemporary luxury watchmaking. The iconic President bracelet, exclusive to Day-Date models, completes this expression of Rolex's most prestigious complications.
