Rolex Day-Date 40 Olive Green Roman Everose Gold - Ref. 228235 / Pre-Owned

Everose gold. Olive green. President bracelet. There is very little about this Day-Date 40 that whispers. Rolex Day-Date Ref. 228235 combines a 40mm case crafted in Rolex's proprietary 18 kt Everose gold with an olive-green Roman-numeral dial, producing one of the most coveted and visually arresting combinations in the modern Day-Date family.

The Day-Date has occupied a singular position in the Rolex collection since 1956, famously displaying both the date and the day of the week spelled out in full. Here, those signature complications are framed by a fluted bezel and paired with the iconic President bracelet, created specifically for the Day-Date and inseparable from the model's status and identity.

Power comes from Rolex manufacture calibre 3255, an automatic mechanical movement with approximately 70 hours of power reserve. The Oyster case is waterproof to 100 meters, combining precious-metal prestige with the engineering expected from a Rolex designed to be worn rather than hidden away.

This is not simply a Day-Date—it is the Everose-and-olive configuration people specifically set out to find. The combination matters, the reference matters, and the individual pre-owned example matters. Once this one moves into another collection, recreating the opportunity means finding another 228235 with the configuration you actually wanted. At this level, settling for "close enough" makes very little sense.
