When it comes to talking about watchmaking icons, no conversation can be convincingly completed without mentioning the Rolex Datejust 36. Not only was it a trailblazer when it was launched in 1945, but it has also remained a benchmark of elegant simplicity. In terms of versatility, few watches can match the ever-fitting Rolex Datejust, and it’s no wonder it’s easily one of the most popular luxury replica watches of all time.
Even if you’re not familiar with the Rolex brand, you’ve probably found yourself admiring a Datejust on someone’s wrist at some point, and the Datejust collection has grown steadily over the years and is now one of the brand’s most diverse offerings. Between all the different metal combinations, bezel and strap styles, and the vast array of dial options, there are countless configurations to choose from.
Unsurprisingly, the replica Rolex Datejust 36 has a diameter of 36 mm and it has 20 mm wide lugs. The modern model features a sapphire crystal, replacing the acrylic alternative previously used. Given its long history, the Datejust has been updated in both technical and aesthetic terms.
Depending on the year of production, the newer models of the Datejust use either Super-LumiNova or Chromalight to illuminate their dials and hands; Super-LumiNova emits a green glow, while the newer Chromalight emits a bright blue glow.
The bezel of a Rolex Datejust watch can be fluted, smooth, machine-turned, or gem-set. While certain options, such as solid gold construction or engraved bezels have been discontinued in the current 36mm collection, the Datejust still offers a very diverse range of configurations. Over the years, the Rolex Datejust 36 has featured a variety of movements, but it has always characterized a self-winding movement.
It is a chronometer-certified self-winding movement with a frequency of 28,800 VPN a balance bridge, and a Rolex paramagnetic blue Parachrom hairspring. Accurate and reliable, the 3135 caliber provides a 48-hour power reserve and its performance has been proven for 25 years.
