Rolex Day-Date 36 Ref. 128236 Platinum with Ombré Blue Diamond-Set Dial & Fluted Bezel

The Rolex Day-Date 36 Ref. 128236 in 950 platinum is a pinnacle reference within the Day-Date lineage—crafted from the most prestigious metal used by Rolex and distinguished by a level of refinement few models can match. Its presence is unmistakably luxurious, defined by weight, brilliance, and a dial execution available exclusively on platinum models.

At the center of this configuration is the Ombré Blue Dial, a rich gradient that shifts from a vibrant cerulean core into a deep midnight perimeter. This color transition is unique to the platinum Day-Date family and exemplifies the brand’s mastery of dial finishing. Each hour marker is set with brilliant-cut diamonds inside polished white-gold surrounds, adding measured sophistication without overwhelming the dial’s natural depth.

Encircling the composition is the Platinum Fluted Bezel, a feat of engineering newly introduced to platinum models. Unlike gold, platinum’s density and hardness require specialized machining to achieve the sharp, light-catching facets that define Rolex’s most iconic bezel style.

The watch is completed with the signature President bracelet, also crafted entirely from platinum. Its semi-circular links offer exceptional drape and comfort, creating a tactile experience recognized instantly by collectors around the world.

The Day-Date 36 Ref. 128236 with Ombré Blue Diamond-Set Dial represents the highest expression of Rolex aesthetics—rare metal, precision gem-setting, and an unmistakably modern dial design combined into a single, collectible reference.
