Rolex Datejust 36 Ref. 126231 | Steel & Rose Gold Palm Dial

The Rolex Datejust 36 reference 126231 pairs Oystersteel with 18k Everose gold, the rose gold Rolex makes in its own foundry so the colour does not fade. This example carries the silver palm-motif dial with diamond-set hour markers, a dressier take on the palm dial that has become one of the most requested Datejust looks in the Gulf. At 36mm it sits in the middle of the size range, which is why it reads equally well on men and women.

Inside is Rolex's calibre 3235, an automatic movement with a 70-hour power reserve and superlative chronometer certification. The fluted Everose bezel and five-link Jubilee bracelet are the classic Datejust signatures, with the date shown at 3 o'clock under the Cyclops lens. It is water resistant to 100 metres, so it handles daily wear without fuss.

This piece is in excellent condition, a 2023 watch supplied with its original papers and box. At Konesseur, every Rolex is authenticated and inspected in Dubai before it is listed, and buying here keeps you clear of European retail markups thanks to the lower UAE VAT.
