Rolex Day-Date 40 White Gold , 228239

We are proud to present this stunning Rolex Day-Date 40 White Gold, reference 228239, for sale in mint condition.

Few watches in the world of horology carry the same presence and prestige as the Rolex Day-Date. First introduced in 1956, the Day-Date quickly became the brand’s flagship dress watch and was the first wristwatch to display both the day of the week written in full at 12 o’clock and the date at 3 o’clock. Reserved exclusively for precious metals, the Day-Date has long represented the highest expression of Rolex elegance, combining technical excellence with timeless design. Over the decades, it has become affectionately known as the “President”, not only for its famous bracelet, but also for the status and gravitas the model has come to embody.

This example, reference 228239, is housed in a 40mm 18ct white gold Oyster case and fitted with the signature 18ct white gold fluted bezel, giving the watch the unmistakable character that defines the modern Day-Date. The standout feature is its striking olive green dial, a rich and sophisticated colour that pairs beautifully with the cool tone of the white gold case. The dial is completed by the classic day aperture at 12 o’clock, date display at 3 o’clock beneath the Cyclops magnifier, and elegant applied hour markers and hands, all protected by a sapphire crystal.

Powering the watch is the Rolex calibre 3255, a self-winding chronometer movement renowned for its precision, robustness, and improved efficiency. The watch is completed by the iconic 18ct white gold President bracelet with concealed folding clasp, a bracelet design that remains one of the most celebrated in all of watchmaking and an essential part of the Day-Date’s identity.

This particular watch is presented in mint condition and has just been serviced by Rolex in June 2026, with service stickers still intact, further underlining its superb presentation. It comes supplied with both inner and outer Rolex boxes, warranty card, Rolex service card, green card holder, booklet, copy of the service receipt, swing tag and seal. The watch is covered by Rolex service warranty until June 2028.
