Today, we're gonna be doing a review on the Rolex Datejust 41. This is the model number 126331. We'll be going over the dial, bezel, case, crown, bracelet, clasp and we'll talk about the movement towards the end of the video. So, jumping right into the dial, you can see very, very basic Datejust architecture for the dial, which is the hour markers with a date window at the three o'clock position. Cyclops lens on top of that Sapphire crystal for magnification, easy viewing of that date. We have the 12 o'clock position, Rolex crown logo, and the Everose gold as this is a two-tone Everose gold watch. Everose gold is a specific rose gold that Rolex makes that they use different mixtures of metals. Platinum is especially the main one, one of the main ones that they use to help keep this rose gold color over its lifetime. Whereas other watch brands use much more copper content in their rose gold to make that nice, really dark, you know, really reddish hue. But unfortunately that fades over times and over the years, whereas Rolex is as not as reddish, but it has a nice pinkish overtone to it. And it'll keep that same coloring throughout its lifetime. So, if you like this color and you wanna see it years and years down the line, then you should definitely get something in the Everose gold. But specifically, back to the dial at the nine o'clock position, this is very specific to the dial. The dial I have over in my hand here. This configuration is called the Wimbledon dial. Specifically, it has anniversary colored Roman numerals. So, you can see the Roman numerals from one, two, all the way back to the nine. And in between from the nine o'clock position to the crown. But we also have this index at the nine o'clock position. That is luminous-filled, similar to the hands as well. One small tidbit to know is that, specifically for, yeah, specifically for Datejust watches, Roman numeral watches typically come in a full-rose gold, or their, you know, white gold or yellow gold hand, depending on of course, which material of watch you decide to purchase. And usually the index hour markers or like full-index hour markers watch, Datejust watches come with the luminous filled tips, tips, hands. Even though this watch is mainly Roman numerals and doesn't have the luminosity that an index hour marker, index hour markers do. They decided to, Rolex decided to opt in with the, hour hand and the minute hand being the index-style hour hand, minute hand. Which is rose gold to the point that the tips, where it has luminous fillings at the hour and the minute, ends of the hour and minute hands. So, that allows you to be able to read the watch in the dark as well, as well as being able to read it during the day, much, much more easily. Of course, a nine, the nine does help additionally, help landmarks, the landmark, the glow-in-the-dark portion of the watch. So, you'll be able to easily recognize and read the time from that nine o'clock position. Moving on, moving on to the bezel. Now, the bezel is that full 18 carat Everose gold, but this is a fluted bezel, as you can see. Sort of looks, sort of captures light in different portions of the bezel. You'll see different highlights and contrast as I sort of tilt it against the light here. Can see different contrast in different various portions of the fluted bezel and shines very nicely in the sunlight as well as, sort of makes a little disco in your car if the sunlight were to just hit that, hit that fluted bezel. It makes an absolutely gorgeous shine that really compliments that sort of sunburst feature from the rhodium-style Wimbledon, not rhodium, but slate-colored dial from the Wimbledon dial. Moving on to the case size now. The case size is a 41 millimeter watch. So, from my index finger to my thumb here, it's 41 millimeters in diameter. And from the side profile of the case as you can see, is actually a very slim profile. So, this wolfenden suit cuffs just very nicely. And one thing to mention about the slim profile is, this is a newer style Datejust watch, the Datejust 41 line. The previous ones were the 11633, 33 ones, which were the Datejust 2 lines. They were also a 41 millimeter, but the case size was ticker and the bezel was sticker as well. So, it had a higher profile and sort of a larger wear to it, but now we have this nice, beautiful slimmed-down case and slimmed-down bezel and it helps keep the proportions all in check while also fitting very comfortably on the wrist. On the other side, as well, you see that nice same high polis and then the Rolex crown logo on the crown itself their. Crown being 18 carat Everose gold. For the crown functions, we're gonna go ahead and unwind it counter-clockwise, as shown. And it's counter-clockwise, counter-clockwise wind, you'll arrive at the standard position without pulling the crown out at all. And this is where you actually be able to wind the watch. About 15 to 20 winds is all you need to get the watch started once more. Pulling the crown out to the next position will allow you to adjust the date instantaneously at the three o'clock position, as you can see. So, just move that clockwise. It's very easy to set. Pull the crown out to the final position will stop that seconds hand. I currently have it stopped just after the 10 o'clock position. And then you'll be able to move the hands bidirectionally, set that time however you like. You can set down to the exact seconds with a stop, stopping at seconds hand, such as soon as atomic clock online. Atomic clock online to set it down to the exact seconds. And then pressing that crown back in will start that seconds hand once more. And always make sure to screw the crown nice and tight in against the case, as you wanna keep this watch nice and protected. Specifically for water resistance as well. You're looking at 100 meters and 330 feet. Moving onto the bracelet now. The bracelet is a Jubilee style bracelet, which is a five-piece link style bracelet that Rolex does. A larger outer two links and in center smaller three, similar style links down the center. We have the 18 carat Everose gold going down the center. These are three links with 9040 steel for the outer of the five, of the outer of the five-piece links. They're nicely Sand finish versus a high polish down the center. You can see a very nice tapering from the first link downward all the way to the back clasp. The clasp itself is a newer style class from Rolex that they decided to co-opt with the ORSA style bracelet as to add more comfortability, ease of access and also being able to have the, sort of, easy-link feature. That's located right behind the clasp in this little indentation here. And you'll be able to, or rather be behind here. And there's one in the front as well. And that allows you to adjust the bracelet for that five millimeter increment forward, forward, outward or inward. So, you then, you can adjust for like hot summer days, hot summer days, you'll be able to adjust for your wrist. If it becomes, you know, your wrist swells up a little bit because of the heat, then you don't want, you wanna be a little bit more comfortable to be able to have that watch, sort of, not choke your wrist and of course, vice versa, vice versa on colder days as well. You don't want the, you know, you don't want the watch to be too loose on your wrist and shake everywhere. So, again, I'm going to demonstrate with that once more. So, we're gonna open that oyster-folding clasp and there we are, opening it up to reveal the nicely high-polished clasp blades. With the Rolex name embossed, right there in the center on the other portion of the clasp. And then closing it back up. Very simple, very easy to use. And then back to the other side of the bracelet, you can see same tapering. Same tapering to keep the nice proportional view overall. All right, so moving on to the movement. The movement is housed into this simple Oyster case backing that has a nice sand finish at the top edge of it. And then on the edge around it has a nice high polish. The movement was updated from a 3135, which was the, sort of, movements that I was used in the Datejust Submariner, on sports pieces as well, like Submariners and Deepsea's. But they've updated to the 3235 movement, which is still a perpetual mechanical self-winding movement. It has a precision of -2/+2 seconds a day, which is within Swiss specs. Actually a little bit past Swiss specs as Swiss specs is -4/+6 seconds a day. Where Rolex does there own house, in-house testing to try to get their watches to that nice precision of the -2/+2 seconds a day. The functions of the movement as the center hour, minute, and seconds hand. With the instantaneous changing of the day and the stopping in the seconds hand, I've shown you with the crown functions. The oscillator is a paramagnetic Bleu Parachrom Hairspring, which has the high-performance Paraflex shock absorbers, as well. So, they've updated from the industry standard. So, the industry standard was a Kif shock absorber. So, the Paraflex shock absorbers is the in-house main shock absorbers over at Rolex now. Which they claim absorbs 50% more shocks than the Kif shock absorbers. Additionally, the hairspring is now the Chronergy, not the hairspring, but the escapement is now called the Chronergy escapement, which is an in-house. It's escapement will buy Rolex as well. So, nice shift from doing all in-house only parts. So, that Chronergy escapement is a skeletonized escapement wheel, made out of the nickel phosphorous. The nickel phosphorous helping with additional resistance against magnetism whilst the skeletonization of the escapement will help through to put the reduction of inertia and helps with the energy efficiency and with the precise timekeeping. The power reserve of the watch has been updated from its old predecessor. The Datejust 2, so it used to be a 48 hour power reserve. Now, we're looking at a 72 hour power reserve, meaning you could put this watch on a Friday evening, pick it back up on a Sunday afternoon, it'll be keeping time just fine. So, I'm gonna actually go ahead and show you this watch on my wrist now. So, we're gonna go ahead and open that Oyster. Folding Oyster there, snap that on. And there we are. You can see that one Wimbledon dial looks absolutely gorgeous. The nice accents of green on that slate dial with the just, sort of being bordered by that 18 caret Everose gold, fluted bezel to give it a nice shine to compliment. And as I mentioned before, it does not sit high off the wrist so wolfenden suit cuffs just goes very nicely.
