Rolex, Day-Date 36, 128238, Mother of Pearl Diamond Dial, Yellow Gold, Link Diamond Presidential Bracelet, 36mm.

The watch is crafted in a 36mm Oyster case made of 18ct yellow gold, creating a warm and luxurious foundation that complements the dial's natural character.

Its Oyster construction incorporates a screw-down caseback and Twinlock winding crown, maintaining water resistance up to 100 meters while preserving the classic proportions of the Day-Date 36.

The fluted bezel surrounds the case with sharply defined ridges, producing changing reflections that add texture and depth without distracting from the dial.

At the center is a mother-of-pearl dial formed from natural shell material, giving each example its own subtle variations in tone, texture, and iridescence.

Unlike lacquered or sunray-finished dials, the visual character comes directly from the material's natural layers, creating reflections that shift among white, cream, silver, and soft pastel hues depending on the angle of light.

Diamond hour markers are mounted in yellow gold settings, introducing concentrated points of brilliance while maintaining a clean and symmetrical display.

The day aperture spans across 12 o’clock, while the date display at 3 o’clock sits beneath the Cyclops lens for enhanced readability.

A defining feature of this reference is its diamond-set center links, which extend the gemstone detailing beyond the dial and into the President bracelet itself.

The additional diamonds create a more continuous flow of light across the watch, connecting the dial, case, and bracelet into a single visual composition.

Its President bracelet is crafted in matching yellow gold, using semi-circular three-piece links designed specifically for the Day-Date collection and engineered for exceptional comfort on the wrist.

A concealed Crownclasp integrates directly into the bracelet, preserving a seamless appearance when secured.

Inside, the watch is powered by the Rolex caliber 3255 automatic movement, offering approximately 70 hours of power reserve and regulated to Rolex’s Superlative Chronometer standard.

What makes this reference particularly distinctive is the contrast between the organic beauty of the mother-of-pearl dial and the precision of the diamond setting throughout the watch.

The natural dial ensures no two examples are exactly alike, while the diamond-set bracelet links elevate the sense of craftsmanship far beyond a traditional Day-Date configuration.
