Rolex – Day-Date – Meteorite Dial – 228396TBR – 2022

Rolex Day-Date 40 Meteorite Dial – 228396TBR (2022)

The Rolex Day-Date 40 “Meteorite” 228396TBR stands at the absolute pinnacle of horological prestige—where rare materials, elite craftsmanship, and unmistakable presence converge. Crafted entirely in solid 950 platinum, this reference represents one of the most exclusive configurations within the Day-Date collection, elevated further by its breathtaking natural meteorite dial and factory diamond-set bezel.

Formed over millions of years in outer space, the meteorite dial is truly one of a kind, featuring natural Widmanstätten patterns that ensure no two dials are ever identical. This celestial texture, paired with baguette-cut diamond hour markers, creates a striking contrast of raw natural beauty and refined luxury. It’s a dial that simply cannot be replicated.

Encased in platinum and fitted with the iconic President bracelet, the 228396TBR carries the unmistakable weight and presence that defines the Day-Date line—often referred to as the “President’s Watch.” The factory-set diamond bezel adds an additional layer of brilliance, catching light from every angle while maintaining Rolex’s signature balance of elegance and restraint.

Powering this exceptional timepiece is the Rolex Caliber 3255, a next-generation automatic movement offering superior precision, a 70-hour power reserve, and Rolex’s patented Chronergy escapement. As expected, it is certified as a Superlative Chronometer, ensuring unmatched reliability and performance.
