Datejust 36

Oyster, 36 mm, Oystersteel and yellow gold

This Oyster PerpetualDatejust 36 in YellowRolesor features achampagne-colour,diamond-set dial and anOyster bracelet.

Its dial features Diamonds in 18 ct gold settings. The light

reflections on the case sides and lugs highlight the elegant

profile of the 36 mm Oyster case, which is fitted with a

Fluted bezel. Aesthetically, the Datejust has spanned eras,

while retaining the enduring codes that make it, notably in

its traditional versions, one of the most recognized and

recognizable of watches.

Champagne-colour DialA watchmaking technique

The sunray finish on Rolex dials is a predominant method

in watchmaking of achieving pure metallic colour dials

such as shades of silver grey, rhodium or ruthenium.

The Fluted BezelA Rolex signature

The Rolex fluted bezel is a mark of distinction. Originally,

the fluting of the Oyster bezel had a functional purpose: it

served to screw the bezel onto the case helping to ensure

the waterproofness of the watch. It was therefore identical

to the fluting on the case back, which was also screwed

onto the case for waterproofness, using specific Rolex

tools. Over time, the fluting became an aesthetic element,

a genuine Rolex signature feature. Today the fluted bezel

is a mark of distinction, always in gold.

Yellow RolesorA meeting of two metals

Gold is coveted for its lustre and nobility. Steel reinforces

strength and reliability. Together, they harmoniously

combine the best of their properties. A true Rolex

signature, Rolesor has featured on Rolex models since the

early 1930s, and was trademarked as a name in 1933. It is

one of the prominent pillars of the Oyster collection.

The Oyster braceletAlchemy of form andfunction

The Oyster bracelet is a perfect alchemy of form and

function, aesthetics and technology, designed to be both

robust and comfortable. It is equipped with an Oysterclasp

and the Easylink comfort extension link, also exclusive to

Rolex. This ingenious system allows the wearer to increase

the bracelet length by approximately 5 mm, providing

additional comfort in any circumstance.

The Cyclops lensA magnifying lens

The Cyclops lens is one of the most distinctive Rolex

features, and one of the most recognizable. Named after

the one-eyed giant of Greek mythology, the Cyclops lens

magnifies the watch’s emblematic date display two and a

half times for easy reading. Behind the Cyclops, as with

every feature of a Rolex timepiece, lies a history of

invention, research and development, and the endless

search for perfection.

3235 MovementSuperlative performance

The calibre 3235 is a new-generation movement entirely

developed and manufactured by Rolex. This self-winding

mechanical movement is at the forefront of the art of

watchmaking. A consummate demonstration of Rolex

technology, it offers fundamental gains in terms of

precision, power reserve, resistance to shocks and

magnetic fields, convenience and reliability. It incorporates

the new Chronergy escapement patented by Rolex, which

combines high energy efficiency with great dependability.

Made of nickel-phosphorus, it is also insensitive to

magnetic interference.
