Rolex Day-Date 40 'Olive Dial' – Reference 228349RBR (2022) TA

Heritage Narrative

The Rolex Day-Date 40 reference 228349RBR represents one of the most elevated modern executions of Rolex’s flagship model. Crafted in 18kt white gold and paired with a diamond-set bezel, the 228349RBR combines the Day-Date’s historic prestige with a more jewel-forward configuration while maintaining the collection’s unmistakable identity.

This example from 2022 is presented as a full set and features the highly sought-after olive-green dial with applied Roman numeral hour markers. The olive dial has become one of the most distinctive modern Day-Date signatures, offering a rich tone that shifts subtly in different light and pairs exceptionally well with the cooler hue of white gold. The Roman numerals reinforce the classic Day-Date aesthetic, balancing the watch’s gem-set bezel with a traditional dial layout.

Powering the watch is Rolex’s calibre 3255, a self-winding Perpetual mechanical movement with instantaneous day and date functionality. The calibre 3255 is Rolex’s current-generation Day-Date movement, developed for high efficiency and long-term reliability, and offering a power reserve of approximately 70 hours.

The 40 mm white gold Oyster case is paired with the President bracelet, a defining Day-Date element known for its semi-circular three-piece links and refined comfort. With its combination of precious metal construction, iconic Day-Date design language, and one of Rolex’s most recognizable dial colors, the 228349RBR offers a compelling modern flagship configuration.

Presented pre-owned and complete with box and warranty, this Day-Date 40 is an ideal choice for collectors seeking a contemporary precious-metal Rolex with strong visual identity and elevated finishing.
