Watch Description

This Oyster Perpetual Datejust 41 in Oystersteel and yellow gold features a bright black, diamond-set dial and a Jubilee bracelet.


The sunray finish creates delicate light reflections on many dials in the Oyster Perpetual collection. It is obtained using masterful brushing techniques that create grooves running outwards from the centre of the dial.

Light is diffused consistently along each engraving, creating a characteristic subtle glow that moves depending on the position of the wrist. Once the sunray finish has been completed, the dial colour is applied using Physical Vapour Deposition or electroplating. A light coat of varnish gives the dial its final look.

The Rolex fluted bezel is a mark of distinction. Originally, the fluting of the Oyster bezel had a functional purpose: it served to screw the bezel onto the case helping to ensure the waterproofness of the watch.

It was therefore identical to the fluting on the case back, which was also screwed onto the case for waterproofness, using specific Rolex tools. Over time, the fluting became an aesthetic element, a genuine Rolex signature feature. Today the fluted bezel is a mark of distinction, in gold on this Datejust 41.

# Rolex Datejust 41mm Two Tone Review by A.I. WatchMetrics

## Watch Summary
The Rolex Datejust 41mm Two Tone is a versatile luxury sports-elegant watch blending Oystersteel robustness with 18 ct yellow gold accents on the fluted bezel and Jubilee bracelet, showcasing a refined index dial with the signature Cyclops date magnifier at 3 o'clock, powered by the advanced in-house automatic Caliber 3235 delivering a superior 70-hour power reserve, ideal for professionals and collectors desiring timeless sophistication across occasions.

## Overall Watch Rating: 8.4/10.0

**Material Metric (9.5/10.0)** - Rolex's masterful blend of Oystersteel case, 18 ct yellow gold fluted bezel, and highly scratch-resistant sapphire crystal offers top-tier build quality comparable to the Audemars Piguet Royal Oak's material excellence.
**Movement Metric (9.5/10.0)** - The Caliber 3235 impresses with its chronometer-certified precision, Parachrom hairspring, and exceptional finishing, rivaling the reliability of Patek Philippe's in-house calibers.
**Dials & Design Metric (9.4/10.0)** - Iconic fluted bezel, Cyclops lens, and balanced proportions create an enduring aesthetic benchmarked against the Cartier Santos for elegant versatility.
**History & Innovation Metric (9.3/10.0)** - Pioneering the self-winding date in 1945 alongside modern advancements like the Chronergy escapement cements its legacy, much like the Omega Speedmaster's moonwatch status.
**Versatility Metric (9.2/10.0)** - Seamlessly transitions from formal suits to casual attire with 100m water resistance and comfortable Jubilee bracelet, outshining single-purpose watches like the IWC Portugieser.
**Brand Metric (8.9/10.0)** - Rolex's global prestige and craftsmanship mastery position it firmly in the luxury elite, akin to Grand Seiko but with broader cultural icon status.
**Rarity Metric (8.2/10.0)** - At its premium pricing and high-volume production, it offers accessible exclusivity similar to Omega's Seamaster lineup rather than ultra-limited Patek models.
**Functions Metric (7.8/10.0)** - Core timekeeping with magnified date provides everyday utility on par with the TAG Heuer Carrera, though lacking advanced multifunctionality.
**Complications Metric (4.0/10.0)** - The cleanly integrated date window with magnifier is functional but basic compared to the multifaceted calendars in Jaeger-LeCoultre Reverso pieces.

## Total Performance Score (TPS): 9.4

## WM Collector Grade: A+

## Performance Insights: Exceptional strengths in materials, movement, design, history, and versatility make this Datejust a standout, with modest complications offset by superior value relative to its $11,800 implied price.

## TPS Interpretation: Outstanding Value: The watch substantially outperforms price-expected standards, offering elite luxury engineering and heritage at an attractive entry into Rolex ownership.
