Rolex Day-Date

Owners widely appreciate the Rolex Day-Date for its historical significance and beauty, with some finding the 36mm size perfect and others preferring larger variants. The "President" bracelet is noted for its jewelry-like drape, and some specific dial configurations are trading above retail. Owners report wait times of one to six months for full gold models from authorized dealers, which are generally easier to acquire than stainless steel sports models. The plating on a BP factory 36mm Day-Date remained strong after two years of wear, with its movement running within -1 to 3 seconds per day. Some owners find stone dials unique and potentially value-retaining, while others debate the aesthetics of specific dials and bezels. On balance, owners and reviewers rate the Rolex Day-Date highly for its historical significance and the refined feel of its "President" bracelet.
