The stated exterior combines Olive Green Sunburst with Faceted Applied Roman Numeral Hour Markers; Signature Fluted Bezel (18K Rose Gold Plated); Solid Rose Gold Plated President Bracelet (Semi-Circular 3-Piece Links) with Concealed Crownclasp. The case specification uses 904L Stainless Steel Base with Heavy 18K Rose Gold Plating (Case, Bezel, & Bracelet). Inspect color and finishing under neutral light, since reflections and image processing can make polished surfaces, dial texture and metal tone appear different.
DD3255: functions and checks
Custom DD3255 Automatic Movement (True Day-Date Functionality) supports the listed day-and-date layout. QC should show crown positions, calendar adjustment, window centering and changeover behavior as well as ordinary time setting.
Size and wrist fit
The listed diameter sits in a broadly versatile range, but thickness and lug-to-lug behavior can make two watches with the same width wear differently. The president option also affects balance, flexibility and sizing.
Who should consider this configuration?
This version is aimed at buyers who prefer a formal calendar layout. Straight-on QC images are especially useful for checking day and date centering, dial alignment and bracelet finishing. The reference to match is 228235.
Compare this model with other Day-Date configurations by reference, movement, size and exterior specification.
QC checklist for this reference
- Match the reference 228235 and the complete dial, bezel, case and bracelet or strap configuration to the order.
- Use straight-on, neutral-light images to inspect printing, applied markers, hand alignment, date or day centering where fitted and visible exterior condition.
- Demonstrate day and date adjustment and show both displays centered in their windows.
- Check winding, time setting, clasp or buckle operation and an available timegrapher reading for DD3255.
- Check link or strap condition, articulation, sizing range and the security of the clasp or buckle.
Practical questions before ordering
Is this an original Rolex watch?
No. This is a VS Factory-made replica offered by an independent retailer. Brand and reference names identify the design and configuration being compared; they do not indicate authorization or manufacture by the original brand.
Will every production batch look identical?
No. Components and finishing can change between batches. Treat the current product specification and the QC photos or video supplied for the order as the final reference.
Does a stated depth rating confirm water resistance?
No. A separate pressure test is required before exposing any watch to water.
