Rolex Day-Date 36 128398TBR Yellow Gold Turquoise Stone Diamond Roman Numerals Dial Diamond Bezel

The Rolex Day-Date 36 Ref. 128398TBR in yellow gold with a turquoise stone dial, diamond Roman numerals, and a diamond-set bezel is one of the most expressive and jewelry-forward executions of Rolex’s flagship model. Crafted entirely in 18k yellow gold, the 36mm case preserves the classic Day-Date proportions while elevating the design through extensive gem-setting. In place of the traditional fluted bezel, this reference features a bezel set with baguette diamonds, creating a radiant frame that immediately distinguishes it as a high-jewelry Day-Date rather than a conventional dress watch.

The turquoise stone dial is the defining element, prized for its vivid, opaque blue tone and natural variation, making each example subtly unique. Set against this striking backdrop are diamond Roman numeral hour markers, combining classical typography with modern brilliance. The day display at 12 o’clock and the date window at 3 o’clock remain central to the Day-Date identity, grounding the watch in its historic role despite its bold aesthetic. Yellow-gold hands and text maintain legibility while harmonizing with the warmth of the case.

Completing the watch is the iconic President bracelet in yellow gold, whose semi-circular links offer both comfort and unmistakable presence on the wrist. Powered by an automatic movement built for precision and long-term reliability, the 128398TBR balances mechanical substance with dramatic visual impact. For collectors, this reference represents the Day-Date at its most distinctive—uniting precious metal, rare stone dial, diamond Roman numerals, and high-level gem-setting into a statement piece that sits confidently at the intersection of classic Rolex heritage and modern luxury expression.
