Description
The 2026 green ombré Datejust 41 marks a technically significant moment in the reference’s dial-making history: it is the first fully lacquered ombré Datejust since the format’s reintroduction to the catalogue in 2019, a distinction that separates it from all previous ombré executions, which used different surface techniques. The construction is deliberate and laborious — a green lacquer base applied first, followed by black lacquer sprayed in concentric circular motions toward the rim to build the gradient — each pass controlled to produce the precise darkening toward the edge that makes the date aperture read with heightened contrast. Available exclusively in the stainless steel and white gold Jubilee configuration, this reference carries Rolex’s signature color in a dial treatment of genuine technical novelty.
The 41mm stainless steel Oyster case carries a white gold fluted bezel, the characteristic serrated profile providing visual counterpoint to the smooth gradient of the dial. The green ombré lacquer dial presents applied luminous baton hour markers and a date aperture at three o’clock beneath a Cyclops lens, with the green-to-black gradient deepening toward the chapter ring. The five-link Jubilee bracelet in stainless steel with Oysterclasp completes the reference. Caliber 3235 with approximately 70-hour power reserve powers the movement.
