Our take on the Rolex Oyster Perpetual Day-Date Black Automatic 18 Carat Yellow Gold President 228348BKDP

The Rolex Day-Date 228348 is the flagship of the Rolex line: an 18 ct yellow gold watch with a President bracelet and a black dial. It shows the day spelled out in full at 12 o'clock and the date at 3, both under a Cyclops lens. The 40 mm case holds Rolex's automatic movement with a perpetual calendar, and the solid gold case and bracelet give it real heft on the wrist. It suits buyers who want a dress watch with instant recognition; against the Datejust it is heavier, all gold and more expensive to own, and against steel sports Rolex models it trades water-sport toughness for formality.

Questions and answers

Is the Day-Date 228348 solid gold?
Yes. The case and President bracelet are 18 ct yellow gold, which is why it feels heavy compared with a steel Rolex.
How does it differ from a Datejust?
The Day-Date adds the full day name at 12 o'clock, comes only in precious metals and uses the President bracelet. The Datejust is available in steel and is lighter and less formal.
What size is the case?
The case is 40 mm across, larger than the classic 36 mm Day-Date, so it wears more prominently on the wrist.
Is it waterproof?
It is rated for everyday water resistance, not diving. It is a dress watch, so avoid swimming and prolonged water exposure.
What functions does it have?
It is an analog automatic watch with a perpetual calendar showing the day and the date.
Can it be worn every day?
Yes, but the polished gold scratches easily and the weight is noticeable, so many owners keep it for dressier occasions.
Where is the Rolex Oyster Perpetual Day-Date Black Automatic 18 Carat Yellow Gold President 228348BKDP cheapest?
