Rolex Datejust 31 – Ref. 178341
Everose Rolesor • Scattered Diamond Bezel • Chocolate Sunburst Dial • Jubilee Bracelet • 31mm
We’re pleased to offer this elegant Rolex Datejust 31, reference 178341, a warm and beautifully balanced configuration that brings together Everose Rolesor, a chocolate sunburst dial, and the always‑graceful Jubilee bracelet. Originally purchased new in March 2018, it has been carefully looked after and remains in excellent condition throughout.
The 31mm case gives the watch a refined presence on the wrist — neither too small nor too bold — and it’s a size we’ve always appreciated for its versatility. It wears comfortably and suits both relaxed and more formal settings with ease.
One of the standout features of this reference is the scattered diamond bezel. Rather than the uniform ring of stones seen on more traditional designs, Rolex opted for a more organic arrangement here. The result is a bezel that catches the light in a softer, more expressive way, giving the watch a distinctive sparkle without ever feeling overstated. It’s a detail that adds real charm to the piece.
The chocolate sunburst dial pairs beautifully with the Everose accents. It shifts from deep bronze to a softer copper tone depending on the light, giving the watch a warm and quietly luxurious character. This example features Everose gold Roman numerals, with the Roman numeral VI set with 11 diamonds, creating a subtle but eye‑catching focal point at six o’clock. It’s a tasteful touch of brilliance that complements the bezel while keeping the overall dial layout clean and elegant.
Rolex’s Everose Rolesor construction combines the brand’s proprietary rose gold with Oystersteel, offering both durability and a rich, enduring colour. The Everose elements — bezel, crown, and centre links — bring a touch of sophistication, while the steel case and outer links ensure the watch remains robust enough for everyday wear.
This example is fitted with the Jubilee bracelet, which suits the watch perfectly. The five‑piece links drape smoothly around the wrist and offer excellent comfort. It’s a bracelet that adds a sense of refinement to the overall look, and the Everose centre links tie the whole aesthetic together.
Inside the case is the Rolex Calibre 2235, a COSC‑certified automatic movement known for its reliability and accuracy. With a power reserve of around 48–55 hours, it’s a movement designed to perform consistently day after day. The watch runs well and keeps time within expected tolerances.
Although the Datejust is often associated with elegance, it’s also a very practical watch. The Oyster case provides 100 metres of water resistance, and the sapphire crystal offers excellent protection against scratches. It’s a piece that can be worn confidently in everyday life without concern.
This particular example remains in excellent overall condition. The case and bracelet show only light, careful wear, and the dial is clean and vibrant. The Jubilee bracelet retains its structure and comfort, and the movement performs as it should. Both Inner and outer boxes, along with the cardboard sleeve, manuals, and International Guarantee Card, are present.
Altogether, this Datejust 31 offers a lovely combination of warmth, refinement, and everyday usability. The chocolate dial, Everose accents, scattered diamond bezel, and diamond‑set Roman numeral VI give it a distinctive character, while the Jubilee bracelet ensures it wears beautifully day to day.
