Rolex Day-Date 18K Gold Black Dial m228238-0067 3255 Movement
Original price was: $1,200.00.$950.00Current price is: $950.00.
Choose this Day-Date 40 if you want the gold-tone President look with stronger contrast than champagne. The black baton dial makes the day window, date magnifier, fluted bezel, and President bracelet feel sharper and more formal. Compared with a champagne Day-Date, this reference is less soft and more evening-focused; compared with the black diamond dial version, it keeps the dial cleaner and more restrained while still delivering the full Day-Date presence and a stronger black-gold identity for dress use today.
Black Dial With Gold-Tone Day-Date Contrast
The Rolex Day-Date m228238-0067 takes the classic gold-tone Day-Date format and gives it a sharper face. The black baton dial creates strong contrast against the gold-tone case, hands, markers, fluted bezel, and President bracelet. The full day window at 12 o'clock and date under Cyclops at 3 o'clock remain the main functional identity.
This reference is the choice for a buyer who wants Day-Date presence but does not want the softer tone of champagne. Black makes the dial more formal, more focused, and easier to distinguish at a glance.
President Bracelet and Fluted Profile
The President bracelet gives the watch its recognizable Day-Date stance. Its rounded link profile looks smoother and more formal than Oyster, while the fluted bezel creates the bright case edge expected from this style of Day-Date. The black dial prevents the full gold-tone exterior from looking one-note.
This configuration includes QF Heavyweight Tungsten Edition, Clone 3255 Automatic, 40mm case, 12.0mm thickness, 47.5mm lug-to-lug, 904L steel with tungsten core and 18K gold plating, black dial, fluted profile bezel, sapphire with Cyclops, President bracelet, folding clasp, and 30m stated water resistance. The exterior also presents a solid caseback and gold-tone bracelet clasp.
Why Buyers Choose This Reference
Choose this over champagne if you want stronger contrast and a more serious dial. Choose the black diamond dial version if you want extra jewelry impact. This black baton configuration is the cleaner black-dial choice: it has the Day-Date status cues, but the dial stays controlled and uncluttered.
QC should focus on day and date alignment, black dial finish, baton marker alignment, fluted bezel definition, bracelet finish, clasp operation, and crown action. The black dial will make alignment issues more noticeable, so straight-on dial views are important.
Movement and Water Note
The movement is recorded as Clone 3255 Automatic. Water resistance is listed at 30m; treat that as a stated factory rating and arrange pressure testing before water exposure. Request dial, day-window, date-window, bezel, bracelet, clasp, side-profile, and caseback photos before dispatch.
