Rolex Day-Date 40 in Jubilee Gold with Aventurine Dial
Rolex has introduced a new Day-Date 40 model featuring a distinctive aventurine stone dial and a proprietary "Jubilee" gold alloy. This release marks a significant update to the brand's flagship precious metal watch, emphasizing unique materials and refined aesthetics.
- 40mm case diameter
- 100m water resistance
- Cal. 3255 automatic movement
- 28,800 beats per hour frequency
- Price: US$65,700
The watch features a natural aventurine stone dial, distinct from the more common aventurine glass, with a jade-green hue and clear lacquer finish that makes printed text appear to float.
The dial is set with ten applied baguette-cut diamonds as hour markers, with larger stones at the nine and six o'clock positions.
The new "Jubilee" gold alloy is Rolex's first new gold alloy since Everose gold in 2005, falling between yellow and pink gold in color.
The Cal. 3255 movement utilizes Rolex's Chronergy escapement and a Parachrom hairspring with a Breguet overcoil, achieving Rolex's "Superlative Chronometer" standard of +/- 2 seconds per day.
The watch is identical to the standard 40mm Day-Date from 2015, apart from the dial and the new gold alloy.
