Rolex Datejust 31 Olive Green Floral Motif Diamond Dial 18k Yellow Gold Steel Jubilee 278243-0032

The Rolex Datejust 278243-0032 is a masterpiece of textures and high-jewelry watchmaking, launched in 2022 to showcase Rolex’s mastery of dial artistry. The standout feature is the olive green floral motif dial, which is composed of 24 distinct flowers. Each flower is finished with a different treatment—sunray, matte, or grained—to create a dynamic depth that catches the light from every angle. To elevate the luxury, a brilliant-cut diamond is set at the center of each flower, totaling 24 diamonds on the dial.

Housed in a 31mm Yellow Rolesor case (Rolex’s signature combination of Oystersteel and 18k yellow gold), this reference features a smooth domed bezel that allows the intricate dial to remain the focal point. It is powered by the Calibre 2236, a self-winding mechanical movement equipped with a Syloxi hairspring in silicon, ensuring superlative chronometric performance and resistance to magnetic fields. The watch is completed with the iconic five-piece link Jubilee bracelet, providing both comfort and a sophisticated, jewelry-like drape on the wrist.

Key Features

Artistic Floral Dial.

• Three Finishing Techniques: The “textured” look of the flowers isn’t just for show; by alternating between sunray, matte, and grained finishes, Rolex ensures the olive green color shifts in tone based on your environment.

• Diamond Settings: Each of the 24 diamonds is held in an 18k gold setting, preventing tarnishing and ensuring the stones remain secure for decades.

The “Evergreen” Movement.

• Syloxi Hairspring: The Calibre 2236 is specifically designed for Rolex’s smaller models. Its silicon hairspring is patented for its high resistance to temperature variations and shocks, remaining up to 10 times more precise than a traditional hairspring.

• Date Symmetry: The date window at 3 o’clock is magnified by the Cyclops lens, a hallmark of the Datejust line since 1945.
