Day-Date 40mm 228238 Presidential Champagne Dial
Related Styles
The Rolex Day-Date 228238 is the 40 mm yellow-gold President reference with a champagne dial and the signature day display at 12 o'clock. This RO TIME build adds a honeycomb dial texture, an alternating finish, a high-beat movement option and a multi-step tapered bezel. It is a dress watch with real presence, built for buyers who want the Day-Date layout in a warmer metal tone with more surface detail than a plain champagne face.
The Day-Date has always been a statement watch, and the yellow-gold case and President-style bracelet make that clear before the dial is even visible. The honeycomb texture gives the champagne surface a geometric pattern that shifts between bright and shaded as the wrist moves. Alternating polished and brushed finishing adds depth to the case and bracelet, while the high-beat movement option is aimed at buyers who value a smoother sweep. The day and date displays remain the defining features.

The 40 mm Day-Date is substantial without being oversized. The President-style bracelet wraps closely around the wrist, and the concealed clasp keeps the profile clean. Champagne and yellow gold create a warm, classic palette that suits business dress, celebrations and formal occasions. The honeycomb dial adds enough texture to keep the watch interesting in daylight, while the alternating finish prevents the gold from looking flat or overly polished.
Each order is checked for dial texture consistency, day and date alignment, bezel profile and bracelet finishing. We verify that the day and date change correctly, inspect the case and President-style bracelet for visible defects, and provide the available QC media before shipment. Delivery is tracked and discreet. Use the shipping and customs guide to review delivery arrangements.
