The Rolex Datejust 278278 in 18k yellow gold with a red ombré diamond dial is a bold and radiant interpretation of the classic 31mm Datejust. Crafted entirely from polished yellow gold, the Oyster case features a fluted bezel that reflects light with every angle, enhancing the watch’s luxurious profile.

Its red ombré dial fades from a bright scarlet center to a deep crimson edge, giving the watch a rich, gradient effect that pairs beautifully with the warmth of yellow gold. Eleven brilliant-cut diamonds are set in yellow gold chatons, serving as hour markers and adding a brilliant sparkle to the dial’s already striking presence. At 3 o’clock, the date window is magnified by Rolex’s Cyclops lens, preserving the functionality that defines the Datejust collection.

Powered by the Caliber 2236, Rolex’s self-winding mechanical movement with a Syloxi silicon hairspring, the 278278 delivers outstanding precision, resistance to shocks and magnetic fields, and a 55-hour power reserve. It is certified as a Superlative Chronometer, reflecting Rolex’s stringent standards for reliability and performance.

The watch is fitted with the iconic President bracelet in yellow gold, distinguished by its semi-circular links and concealed Crownclasp. Balancing elegance and innovation, the Rolex Datejust 278278 is a refined statement piece for those who appreciate vibrant design elevated by enduring craftsmanship.

Best purchase experience I could have imagined. Donald from Wrist Aficionado was very helpful and responsive whether by text, phone call or email. Shared videos with me and helped me get the watch I have been chasing for sometime. I have found my preferred watch dealer and will be a repeat customer. Payment processed same day and the watch ship later that day. A Very Happy Customer. Thank you everyone at the WA team!

Dealing with Vadim was a pleasure. The price was very fair and the communication and service was perfect. I buy a lot of watches and this experience was as good as they get. The audemars piguet arrived right on time and packaged beautifully. They even threw in a little gift!
