Rolex Yellow Gold Day-Date 40 Watch - Bezel - Black Diagonal Motif Index Dial - President Bracelet - 228398TBR bkdmip

Powered by Rolex's proprietary Caliber 3255 automatic movement with a 70-hour power reserve, this yellow gold Day-Date 40 reference 228398TBR demonstrates the manufacture's mastery of both horological engineering and visual design through its striking black diagonal motif dial. The 40mm yellow gold case houses a movement that gained chronometer certification and features Rolex's patented Chronergy escapement, delivering enhanced efficiency and magnetic resistance that sets it apart from traditional Swiss lever escapements. This unworn example showcases the diagonal motif pattern that creates dynamic light play across the black dial surface, while the iconic President bracelet maintains the collection's presidential heritage established in 1956.
