Day-Date Platinum Blue Dial 36mm

About the Model

The Rolex Day-Date 36 (ref. 128236-0009) introduces a rarely seen pairing within the collection: a solid platinum case with a fluted bezel – a visual cue typically reserved for white gold. Its ice-blue sunray dial, exclusive to Rolex platinum models, further enhances the precious-metal distinction and adds a refined contrast to the cool-toned case.

Measuring 36mm, the watch is powered by Rolex’s calibre 3255, an in-house automatic movement offering a 70-hour power reserve, Chronergy escapement, and Superlative Chronometer certification for precise daily performance. The platinum case is matched with a President bracelet and is water-resistant to 100m, maintaining robust practicality without compromising luxury.

Ref. 128236-0009 joined the line-up in 2022, marking another evolution of the Day-Date’s six-decade presence at the top of Rolex’s catalogue. The integration of the upgraded movement with a traditionally sized platinum case—and the rarity of a fluted platinum bezel—makes this reference especially attractive to connoisseurs who value both subtle deviation and mechanical refinement.Read More
