2022 Rolex Datejust 36mm Jubilee Palm Dial 126234 Diamond dial

This dial introduces an artistic, nature-inspired design unlike any classic Datejust before it — a bold step for Rolex. Yet it stays rooted in tradition through timeless elements like the fluted bezel and Jubilee bracelet, creating a perfect blend of contemporary creativity and historic DNA.

Beyond luxury appeal, the 10 diamond hour markers serve both aesthetic and functional purposes. They provide brilliant light reflection for legibility and act as a signature touch that signifies factory-set excellence, distinguishing it from aftermarket alterations.

As of its release, the palm motif is exclusive to certain Datejust models, especially in 36mm configurations. Its scarcity adds a layer of exclusivity, making it a visual cue for those in the know — and increasing its desirability among collectors.

Under ambient or natural light, the palm fronds shift subtly in tone and depth, creating an almost holographic effect. This dynamic visual experience gives the watch a constantly evolving look, rarely the same twice.

While both bracelets are iconic, the Jubilee’s refined, dressier finish enhances the palm dial’s elegance and matches the tone of the diamond accents. For collectors, it provides a cohesive luxury experience — one that balances flair and formality seamlessly.
