Rolex Unworn 2024 Day-Date 36mm 128235 Puzzle Dial

A legendary timepiece that has earned its place as "The Ultimate Watch of Prestige" over the decades it has spent on the wrists of the world's most influential people, the Rolex Day-Date has stood as one of the brand’s most revered collections since it first debuted in 1956. Synonymous with luxury, prestige, and exclusivity thanks to being the watch of choice for the world's celebrities, visionaries, and world leaders alike, the Day-Date is offered as Rolex’s flagship collection. With a rich history, the modern Day-Date stands as one of watchmaking’s most celebrated models, but the Day-Date ref. 128235 ‘Puzzle Dial’ that Rolex launched in 2023 is perhaps one of the brand’s most unique offerings ever created as part of the Day-Date collection.Embracing a modern aesthetic and construction, the ref. 128235 is offered as a classically sized 36mm Day-Date variant, with a luxurious 18kt rose gold construction that wears with the commanding wrist presence that watch collectors have come to cherish in the modern era of watchmaking. Boasting the Day-Date’s fluted bezel and ‘Presidential’ bracelet combo, the Day-Date ref. 128235’s aesthetic is that of pure opulence and luxury.Beyond its hefty physical construction, the ‘Puzzle Dial’ ref. 128235 boasts a significant detail that marks it as a serious departure from the Day-Date’s typically reserved design language, a colorful dial boasting a puzzle motif executed in a champlevé enamelling with turquoise blue, red, fuchsia, orange, green and yellow puzzle pieces set atop a turquoise blue base. Accompanied by 10 baguette-cut rainbow-colored sapphire hour markers, the ‘Puzzle Dial’ ref. 128235’s display is arguably one of modern Rolex’s most surprising releases in recent years, and so its instant popularity and desirability should be no surprise.
