Datejust 31 Dark Grey Pave Roman Diamond Dial Smooth Bezel Steel 18KT Yellow Gold Oyster M278243-0017

The Rolex Datejust 31 Reference 278243 (M278243-0017) is a highly luxurious and versatile timepiece, contrasting the deep drama of the dial with the clean lines of the smooth bezel and the durable Oyster bracelet. It features a muted Dark Grey Dial with diamond-set Roman numeral markers (Pave Roman), a clean Smooth Bezel, and the robust Oyster bracelet, all within the versatile 31mm case size. This model is presented in the classic Rolesor Yellow Gold design (Oystersteel and 18K Yellow Gold).

It features a robust monobloc middle case in Oystersteel (Stainless Steel). A key distinguishing feature of this reference is the Smooth, Domed Bezel crafted from highly polished 18K Yellow Gold. This smooth bezel provides a clean, modern aesthetic that contrasts with the traditional fluted bezel, placing greater visual emphasis on the intricate diamond work on the dial.

The timepiece is fitted with the robust, three-piece link Oyster bracelet, the sportier and more durable option in Rolex’s lineup. Crafted in a two-tone Rolesor Yellow Gold style, the outer links are in Oystersteel while the center links are in polished 18K Yellow Gold, creating a classic, harmonious contrast. It fastens securely with the folding Oysterclasp.

This intricate dial execution ensures the watch is undeniably high-luxury.
