When the first Rolex Datejust was introduced in 1945 – the year of the brand's 40th anniversary, it made history as the first automatic water resistant certified chronometer with a date on the dial. The "Cyclops" was added in 1953 to magnify the date display by two and a half times, thus making the indication more legible and clear, and this feature became one of the most recognizable Rolex hallmarks of all time. In its modern version, the Rolex Datejust 36 offers the characteristics of the original and emblematic Datejust in a cleaner and more contemporary design and includes a number of improvements. One of the most significant features is, of course, the movement – the Datejust 36 carries within it the caliber 3135, an in-house Rolex movement, a COSC certified chronometer with a 48-hour power reserve, operating at 28,800 vibrations per hour. It is not in vain that the Datejust is the brand's most popular and recognizable model after the cult Submariner – and the Datejust 36 allows this popularity to be presented in a contemporary interpretation. This particular watch is one of the brand's models whose combination of a fluted bezel, Jubilee bracelet, and a blue dial with 10 high-quality diamonds make it very rare and sought after by fans of the brand. Indeed, the detail of this watch, as with all the modern Rolexes we have had the opportunity to examine, is impressive. Starting with the incredible dial, in this case in a classic blue color that Rolex calls Bright Blue, which at certain angles seems to be absent – from which the overall impression is as if the hands and markers are "suspended" in the air in a state of weightlessness. Moving on past the sapphire crystal with the "cyclops", of course, separate attention must be paid to the case and bezel – an incredible combination of brushed highest grade 904L steel with faceted polished edges and details in places. As you know, Rolex pays special attention to the steel used and for this purpose has its own foundries for the production of all its alloys. The bezel is the classic "fluted" for the model, which gives an incredible radiance and has a stunning presence on your wrist. And of course the bracelet, or whatever you may call it – as can be expected from a Rolex, it is truly good... In this case, it is a Jubilee bracelet with a solid clasp, crafted from a single piece of steel, and not from bent sheet metal, as is the case with most brands. The only thing it lacks, but perhaps only in our opinion, is the Sub's GlideLock clasp, but here the so-called Easylink is fitted, which allows for micro-adjustment with an additional 5 mm..
