There is an old guy in my parents neighborhood who wears one all the time. He’s like outside doing yard work in old shorts and a holy t shirt and a solid gold Rolex. Such a cool vibe lol
I am generally not a fan of the Day-Date, or even gold watches in general, as it has always given me that “Wall Street creep” vibe, but good lord this once has me wishing I had $40k to add this to my collection. I think the chocolate-diagonal dial is absolutely perfect.
The everose gold really adds a touch of class that is somehow more reserved and subtle than the in-your-face yellow gold finish projects. Nice subject for review, thanks for sharing!
The Day Date 40 is amazing…IF…and it’s a big IF…you can get a great fit with the bracelet. I have owned two Day Date 40s, one of yellow and one in white gold. Both were absolutely amazing, but The bracelet is only adjustable in full links. It was always either too tight or too jangly.
I agree. I got my rose gold 36 in August. The AD fitted it but it felt too tight during the day. Took it back and they added a link and it was too loose. Turns out it’s not a summer watch for me but fits better in cooler weather. And yes, it is amazing to wear. The weight and the shine take some getting used to but once you accept that just wear it all the time. No shame in being a baller!
@@patrickdaly5988 I was talking about on-the-fly adjustment like the glide lock or easy link. My wrist size definitely changes through out the day. Now I daily wear a VC Overseas with silver dial and the quick adjustment is fantastic. It’s one of the few hidden clasp bracelet watches I’ve found that have a quick adjust.
I love the DD and have 3, but in 36mm. A YG black dial, a YG silver dial, and a WG blue dial. All are stunning pieces. A joy is to select one to wear on a given day. I personally have ZERO interest in AP's or Richard Mille and find them ugly and hard to read in most cases and wouldn't spend 5€ for any of them.
Amazing timing. My wife and I just went watch shopping and she was blown away by the same Day Date in yellow gold! Stunning watch on the wrist! When I think of the standard bearer gold watch it is always the Rolex Daydate!
It's definitely up there on my list of grails. I keep going back and forth between yellow and rose gold, but I think yellow gold with matching dial is hard to beat. I'd go 36 though.
I’ve just got a 70s Day Date 1803/9 in white gold and love it .. yes I wished it had micro adjustments as I’m in the tropics .. in the aircon it’s loose and when I’m out it’s tight
I think this is the first B&J I've watched while actually drinking my morning coffee, wow.. Definitely changed the vibe. My wife's response "it's cute but I hate that bracelet".. I really enjoy the original you showed, would def go for that yellow gold president with a white dial
This is one of the most stunning looking Rolex watches I have seen and im absolutely in love with it. The Rose gold with baguettes is just the ultimate looking watch on the market, classy, when you wear it, everyone including the person wearing it is just looking at it, and admiring it.
Beautiful. In my ultimate Rolex choice, I’d go for a Datejust, 36mm, silver bracelet and silver dial. That’d be my daily choice. And then, if I had enough budget, I would go for the gold version, with green dial☺️🙏🏻
Even for someone as self-deprecating as you, a man who wears jumpers rather than suits, there’s no denying you and your channel have their own classy style and ethos. This video captures that perfectly, splendid across the board as always!
It being chocolate is so beautiful. I am not even a big watch guy but I have seen it once and once I can afford it, I will get it. This is the most beautiful watch I have ever seen. Give me 3 different presidential Rolexes and and one or two APs and I will probably be satisfied
Yellow gold green Dayo did just with president bracelet. My next by! I was going to buy the VC222. Do you by hasel and too much money I casted the waters with my date just 41 with white gold fluted Bluetooth bezel. White gold crown jubilee bracelet. This watch is a breakthrough. I have a good connection and it's my favorite go to watch so I can't help but want the 41 and cold. There's something about the K shape and the new bracelet that is just spectacular. Also, that 70 hour power reserve is incredible as it is the accuracy. Rolex nailed it with this one!
Worn a 36 yellow gold for last 20 years always admired and and gone up in value to what l paid thought it was expensive at the time but. was it great investment
The 2.11 - 2.24 section of slow steady opening of the hidden clasp !!! Stunning Adrian - so well done / it feels like the watch is actually in the viewer hand or POV
Adrian, I truly enjoy your take on watches. We agree on quite a bit from the fact that that Rolex copied design cues from the Glycine Airman to design the Explorer II 1655 (I'm an Industrial Designer, professional pilot and watch enthusiast of 50+ years). I own the Airman and love the 1655. Also, my pet peeve... "one watch is just a watch, two watches is a pair and it's at three watches that you start a collection, by definition! My Ultimate Rolex... Easy as I wore a 16750 GMT for 38 years, I WAS that "One Watch" guy for 30+ years! However, when it came to my retirement watch (airline pilot, B-777) I purchased a Rolex steel (Rolasor) black dial Sky Dweller, my personal favorite. Please do a review on this watch.
This is definitely my goal retirement watch except with a green dial. Think the green and rose gold combo is stunning. It’s cool that you even got to try one on.
I feel like this advice applies to more than just this watch. I appreciate it. I can’t swing it today, but I think you’re right - get it when I can and make memories with it. Good advice! Cheers!@@db9071
The Rolex Everrose gold is for me the ultimate shade of gold for a watch. Yellow gold has never really appealed to me, and while white gold is beautiful, I'd go for the Everrose without hesitation. It also accentuates the brown color of the dial.
Adrian, please do a video on the Yacht-master 40mm! Would love to hear your thoughts. Many think this is the most underrated Rolex watch that is about to blow up!
All subjective of course, but I still feel Rolex’s best watch would be a combination of my 124270 and my 214270 with added bits: 37.5mm Explorer with 20mm lugs, ‘Explorer’ back at the bottom, decent AR coating, OTF adjustment and a crown logo that sits upright. Otherwise it’s a gold Breguet Classique that sets me off every time.
Rolex rose gold recipe has too much copper in it, and the end result is too red, too dark and looks too much like copper which is not a precious material. Omega Sedna gold is a much better recipe, it’s brighter and far more premium looking. With Rolex, you are far better off sticking to yellow or white gold, rose gold is not something Rolex does well.
Like a lot of Rolex watches, size isn't everything. A 36mm Datejust or Day Date is classic and understated. 40mm looks brash. I have been looking at yellow gold 1803 and 18038. Some are really good value. Once it has been serviced by Rolex, it would be a fantastic watch to own.
Yep, beautiful watch. For me i'd go for the classic gold with a champagne dial. I currently have a GMT 2 (Black bezel with the green hand). Adding a gold day date would be my ultimate 2 watch "collection". Love the channel, keep doing what you're doing.
If Rolex wasn’t such a flex brand I’d like them. Rolex’s status and huge marketing campaign completely overshadows the craftsmanship that goes in to any of their offerings.
I think this watch deserves its own designation. It definitely not a sports watch, I think you are correct in saying that it’s also not a dress watch… this piece created it’s own area and deserves its own class. I think this is a Business watch, a watch that dresses appropriately in any arena suited daily tasks, weather Wall Street or meeting, signing papers or taking your favorite person out for a night or weekend. It all out morphs into any task it’s called upon… heck maybe the Business watch isn’t a good enough word for it, but it does handle business with the best of them. Cheers
Any day date is my absolute favouritre watch. From stainless steel to gold or platinum in person they are absolutely gorgeous especially with the presidential bracelet
I'm absolutely in love with it. However when it comes to Rolex, vintage pieces always win me over. If I want a full rose gold watch I'd be willing to put more money down for an Overseas or Royal Oak. Those look the absolute business to me.
It’s stunning, I love it but I probably love it more because of the quality of this content. I’m a camera dealer so I’m always interested in what gear people use but moreover, how they use it and boy you do it well. The sharpness of the footage, accuracy of focus, lighting, positioning of the watch and backgrounds......honestly you are leagues ahead of anyone else in terms of quality of footage, the delivery is also very good......top drawer Adrian, absolutely top drawer.👏
I’d personally agree with Ash Williams ( see comments below ) and his comments about a Vacheron being the one I’d rather choose but that said if Rolex could go back to producing those epic stone dials I’d happily say I’d like one in a 42mm size full platinum or Gold ( not a fan of Rose gold ) .
I agree with your pick for the most part. I would only change the metal and make it the platinum version. Watch nerds know what it is immediately. To everyone else it's just a metal watch. Seriously, most people barely notice it's a Rolex and fewer can tell the difference between steel and white gold on a watch; not to mention platinum.
that why I love my 126621 its is right in between dress and sport. and don't brake the bank. but my favorite day-date 40 is yellow gold in white dial with roman sticks.
A stupid question from someone who has very recently got into watches, when something is quoted in its accuracy as being +2 seconds a day, does that mean it is losing time by 2 seconds (i.e. getting slower), or gaining time (getting quicker)?
The Breguet Marine Royale Alarm 45mm in white 18k gold (including bracelet) with black dial is that moment that your own personal success ultimately is founded on those who came before you.
This is probably the best looking rolex ever and the colors somehow make it both striking bit also very very versatile with natural colors so it goes really well with anything. One of the best watches ever! Also I d loove if they were doing this one in this exact spec but black dial and baguette. But this is probably be my favourite watch along with the rosegold choc nauti 5711r/5712r and ap jumbo rosegold darkblue
Bought my very first Daydate from an AD yesterday(my 3rd Rolex) with the exact same spec on this video, not my first choice as I wanted green dial but decided to buy it anyway for the sake of maintaining a 'good relationship' with my AD. Now I'm debating if this has to go straight to the local Jewerly shop or keep it. I don't think I will make any profits by selling this as brand new now goes around $50k in the secondary market so I may even have to take a loss to sell it.
It’s a stunner in rose gold with that chocolate dial for sure. I’d probably lean more towards a vintage yellow gold 36mm, perhaps on a croc strap. Elegant and classy.
You describe perfectly the feeling of wearing a Rolex. It is definitely common to see Rolexes but there is something so nice about feeling one on your wrist. it is almost an intangible feeling that you rarely feel even with Patek or Vacheron. Maybe it’s the classic aesthetic or maybe it’s the weight. The DayDate and DateJust silhouette will always be an icon.
If Chronext is going to advertise a "massive" Black Friday sale, for god's sake don't include a $3960 Cartier marked down to....$3930. Seriously? That is literally less than 1% off.
My dad's had a 1970 1803 since 2005. He got it to celebrate 25 years of his construction business. To me, that watch is synonymous with him-there is no separation. I see him, I think of that watch. I see examples of that watch, I think of him. I have owned a 128239 twice now and keep returning it because, as perfectly as it fits me (can't believe you didn't mention the perfection of the hidden clasp and the bracelet in general), when I see it, it kind of feels like I'm playing dress-up in his clothes. They really are GADA watches, if you're man enough to let them get scuffed up at least (my dad's worn his doing construction on quite a few occasions).
I wasn't a big fan of the rose gold or the brown face....until I tried it on a few years ago. Looked amazing on the wrist. Now I want to find one to buy!
I was never that interested in Rolex, just never did it for me, until I started watching content on TH-cam... And now I keep coming back to them. I don't know if its because everyone says how wonderful they are but I want one now.
The Rolex Day Date is a timeless classic. For me either the white dial, yellow gold or blue dial, white gold with Roman numerals just say one word. Power
One could argue that it's the ultimate dress/formal Rolex, but I agree, Explorer is amazing as well. If possible I would really like to see some more affordable stuff on the channel every now and then to. Thanks and have a good one.
There is an old guy in my parents neighborhood who wears one all the time. He’s like outside doing yard work in old shorts and a holy t shirt and a solid gold Rolex. Such a cool vibe lol
I'd watch a movie, nay, a television series on this man. He sounds like quite a guy.
Perfect! That's what in France they call "savoir vivre" 👌👍👏😎you only live twice 😂

@@jojojor11 you know he has to have an interesting life right??
For me a Vacheron Constantin Overseas in gold with the blue dial would be my opulent watch of choice.
Oh yes! The perpetual calendar overseas in gold with the blue dial is perfection.
I have multiple Day-Dates and I still can't disagree with this statement
@Ashwilliam, couldn’t are more.
@@BarkandJack I own one…..please check your Instagram for my PM
@@BarkandJack VC Overseas Perpetual Calendar ultra-thin blue dial in white gold
A 36mm gold Daydate with an onyx dial is my ultimate Rolex
Same 👍
Same that is just a classic watch
Same!

Ya, same here. I didn't really care so much about rose gold or brown dials for that matter, but that's just stunning.
Good luck finding one at $40K. New they're £40K from the AD like Adrian said (in this configuration)
It is mate... I have it and I can tell you people always ask me about it... Btw, you have great taste ;)
$400k* fixed that for you.
Work three FT roles that pay $180k and you can have one a few months! Take it from me as an owner. the watch is bussing

When I was a kid and new nothing about watches this is the watch that I would think of when I heard the word rolex
Seriously….this just is not good enough. OK…..I have a Submariner, & no problem with the link adjustment/overall fit…….
Suntan lotion, check, beach towel check. Swimming shorts, check, 40 grand gold Rolex, check….. 🙄 what!? 😂😂
Love this Day-Date but for me the Ultimate would be
a Day-Date in White Gold w/Meteorite Dial & Baguette Markers
Yes!! I also heard Rolex is running out of meteorite. That watch will escalate in value soon
I love the DD and have 3, but in 36mm. A YG black dial, a YG silver dial, and a WG blue dial. All are stunning pieces. A joy is to select one to wear on a given day. I personally have ZERO interest in AP's or Richard Mille and find them ugly and hard to read in most cases and wouldn't spend 5€ for any of them.
Great collection. You need to add a Day Date 36mm in platinum with rhodium dial in there
Amazing timing. My wife and I just went watch shopping and she was blown away by the same Day Date in yellow gold! Stunning watch on the wrist! When I think of the standard bearer gold watch it is always the Rolex Daydate!
Bought my 36 yellow gold about 20years back always admired thought it expensive at time but looking at it now what a great investment
It's definitely up there on my list of grails. I keep going back and forth between yellow and rose gold, but I think yellow gold with matching dial is hard to beat. I'd go 36 though.
DD36 in gold. The original and best.
Yellow gold and champagne dial for me. Pure Classic.
Beautiful watch but it's always going to be the 36mm over the 40mm. The 36 is the original, classic and absolutely perfect.
The Day Date 40mm Eisenkiesel dial with diamond markers. That watch is beautiful.
Man! As time goes on, I’m sooo into these opulent Rolexes!
Get a life and a huge rock round shaped, D flowlerss preferebly

Platinum day-date smooth bezel on rubber strap. Stealth wealth.
This in platinum with the Ice Blue dial would be one of my money is no object three watch collection. The Day Date is just perfect.
Even better, one with the eastern Arabic numbers too, and I don’t even speak Arabic!
The Rolex Everrose gold is for me the ultimate shade of gold for a watch. Yellow gold has never really appealed to me, and while white gold is beautiful, I'd go for the Everrose without hesitation. It also accentuates the brown color of the dial.

Admittedly it was an exhibition piece but recently tried on the DD40 in Platinum… now that was a watch 👍
There is no doubt that Rolex 18k Everrose Gold has a unique look that is incomparable to a lot of other brands alloys of rose gold.
Personally I’ve got to say I do love your Rolex content, it’s always top quality and educational and mostly good to watch.
Full rose gold is just unbeatable.
That dial combination and the rose gold is just frickin stunning. But wow that dial, even just by itself. Sad i'll never have one.
I love the feel of a full precious metal Rolex. The day date especially feels amazing.

The two challenges with the Day-Date 40; (1) impossible to get at AD's and (2) the rose gold variations are all so nice, very difficult to choose.
It’s stunning, I love it but I probably love it more because of the quality of this content. I’m a camera dealer so I’m always interested in what gear people use but moreover, how they use it and boy you do it well.

I'll get the datejust instead.
Can't explain why.. just love it.
The datejust is what a rolex is in my mind..
4:00 I’m 17 right now, for me, Rolex is the way to show success and in cars it is Mercedes
I may never get a Rolex…but damn I hope there’s a bag of B&J coffee under my Christmas tree….

The classic 18k gold 40mm with either a black or champagne dial is the ultimate watch IMO. I'm aiming for one before the end of this year.

I have owned a 128239 twice now and keep returning it because, as perfectly as it fits me (can't believe you didn't mention the perfection of the hidden clasp and the bracelet in general), when I see it, it kind of feels like I'm playing dress-up in his clothes. They really are GADA watches, if you're man enough to let them get scuffed up at least (my dad's worn his doing construction on quite a few occasions).
fabulous, the ultimate bracelet dress watch... perfect size.. prestige, heritage.. but not brown :-) I want the white gold and blue dial.
Really love that dial.
Would love to own a gold day date someday. I'd go 18k gold though.. "the Tony soprano"
Dude, for my part, I’m here for the Rolex content!
One of my favorite watches of all-time. However, due to CORRUPT AD's you won't get one!
I get your point about being able to dress up or down the Day Date. But the ultimate Rolex to me is the solid gold GMT Master II 16718.
I wasn't a big fan of the rose gold or the brown face....until I tried it on a few years ago. Looked amazing on the wrist. Now I want to find one to buy!
I was never that interested in Rolex, just never did it for me, until I started watching content on TH-cam... And now I keep coming back to them.
I don't know if its because everyone says how wonderful they are but I want one now.
I think it's the best bracelet Rolex make. I'd like it in rose gold with eisenkeisel dial
The Rolex Day Date is a timeless classic. For me either the white dial, yellow gold or blue dial, white gold with Roman numerals just say one word. Power
rolex day date Rose gold with the green dial is my dream watch
Have got 2 DD's. RG olive dial with diamond bezel, and YG anniversary diamond dial and bezel. Love them both!
One could argue that it's the ultimate dress/formal Rolex, but I agree, Explorer is amazing as well. If possible I would really like to see some more affordable stuff on the channel every now and then to. Thanks and have a good one.
