Rolex 228236 Day-Date President Platinum Black Dial 2025

The Rolex 228236 Day-Date, introduced in platinum for 2025, epitomizes horological prestige and technical mastery. This reference is distinguished by its imposing 40mm Oyster case rendered in solid platinum, an exclusive hallmark for the most discerning collectors. Its sleek black dial, a rarity among the platinum Day-Date models, gives the watch a truly contemporary aesthetic while underscoring its exclusivity. As with all Day-Dates, the 228236 is equipped with the esteemed President bracelet, instantly recognizable by its semi-circular three-piece links, also crafted from platinum for an uncompromising sense of luxury and weight. At its core, the watch houses Rolex’s in-house automatic movement, delivering impeccably precise timekeeping and the instantaneous day and date display at 12 and 3 o’clock—a hallmark complication of the line since 1956. Waterproof to 100 meters, the monobloc case design and screw-down elements ensure robust everyday wear. Collectors will appreciate the fluted bezel, a mark of distinction available exclusively in precious metals, and particularly rare in platinum. The 2025 Day-Date 40 with a black dial remains an understated yet powerful statement piece, continuing the model’s rich heritage as the so-called “President’s Watch.” Competitive at MSRP, it stands as an essential add to any serious modern Rolex collection.
