Rolex Datejust 126231-0037 In-Depth Review: Silver Palm Motif Dial with Diamond-Set Hour Markers and Fluted Bezel

The Rolex Datejust 126231-0037 exemplifies the brand's commitment to excellence with its Oystersteel case, crafted from proprietary 904L steel known for its exceptional corrosion resistance and durability, often used in high-tech and aerospace industries. Rolex pioneered solid blocks of this steel for watch cases in 1985, ensuring a polished finish that lasts even in harsh conditions. The Cyclops lens magnifies the date at 3 o'clock on scratch-resistant sapphire crystal with an anti-reflective coating, providing easy readability. The Rolesor concept, introduced in the 1930s and trademarked in 1933, combines Everose gold with steel, incorporating 18 ct Everose gold into key elements like the bezel, bracelet, and crown to create a luxurious yet durable blend.

The Rolex Jubilee bracelet, a supple and comfortable five-piece link metal design, was introduced in 1945 to launch the Oyster Perpetual Datejust. Complementing this design, Rolex incorporates the concealed folding Crownclasp, enhancing the bracelet's seamless elegance and ensuring both style and functionality.

The Oysterclasp, protected by a folding cover, opens effortlessly with a single motion, combining secure closure with easy opening for daily use. It delivers a unique, reassuring feel with a slight resistance followed by a sharp, confident click, symbolising its reliability. The subtle extension provided by Easylink transforms a well-fitted bracelet into a perfectly fitted one, showcasing Rolex's relentless pursuit of wearable perfection through even the most minor adjustments, ensuring continued comfort in everyday life.

The Silver Palm Motif dial evokes the lushness of tropical forests. It brings an artisanal touch to Rolex's classic watch collection. Upon closer inspection, the intricate laser-engraved leaves stand against a brushed sunray background, creating depth and texture with skillfully applied tints and shadows. Rolex uses a femtosecond laser, emitting ultra-fast pulses, to precisely etch the dial's surface and form delicate palm frond patterns only a few tenths of a millimetre deep.

This dial, featuring diamonds set in 18 ct gold, exudes luxury and sophistication. Diamond markers add an eye-catching brilliance that elevates the overall appearance of the dial, especially when set against plain backgrounds, enhancing its elegance and visual impact.

The Rolex Everose Gold Fluted Bezel was initially designed for functionality, enabling the bezel to screw securely onto the case to ensure waterproofness, similar to the fluting on the case back. While it initially repelled dust and water, since 1953, it has been friction-fitted, evolving into an aesthetic hallmark. Exclusively crafted in 18 ct Everose gold, the fluted bezel reflects light brilliantly, showcasing enhanced geometry and finish with the same passion devoted to its original purpose. This signature element, recognised instantly for its elegance, embodies Rolex's commitment to craftsmanship and timeless design.

Rolex equips the Datejust 126231-0037 with the Calibre 3235, a self-winding mechanical movement known for its precision and durability. It has a 70-hour power reserve and uses the Chronergy escapement, which improves efficiency and resists magnetic interference. It includes a blue Parachrom hairspring for stability against shocks and temperature changes and Paraflex shock absorbers for extra durability. The Calibre 3235 highlights Rolex's dedication to high performance and reliability.
