Rolex 278384rbr-0002 Datejust 31mm Stainless Steel – White Gold Diamond Jubilee Black Dial Watch

Rolex Datejust 31 — Reference 278384RBR-0002

Introducing the sophisticated Rolex Datejust 31 ref. Case Shape: Round. 278384RBR-0002, a consummate blend of classic design, gem-set elegance, and Rolex engineering excellence. With its 31 mm profile, radiant diamond bezel, and striking black dial, this reference commands attention while retaining understated balance.

Case & Materials

This timepiece is crafted in White Rolesor, Rolex’s signature union of Oystersteel and 18 ct white gold, marrying strength with luminous refinement. The diamond-set bezel forms a halo of light around the dial, enhancing its presence with subtle brilliance. The case conforms to Rolex’s Oyster architecture — monobloc middle case, screw-down case back and Twinlock crown — providing water resistance to 100 m (330 ft). A scratch-resistant sapphire crystal, complete with the Cyclops magnification lens over the date window, completes the protective ensemble.

Dial & Legibility

The dial is rendered in bright black, offering a bold yet elegant backdrop to the applied Roman numerals in polished 18 ct white gold. At 3 o’clock, the date aperture is magnified by the Cyclops lens for enhanced readability. The contrast between the deep black dial and gem-accented bezel gives this reference a refined, dramatic presence.

Movement & Performance

Powering the 278384RBR-0002 is Rolex’s in-house Calibre 2236, a self-winding mechanical movement with modern enhancements for accuracy and resilience. The movement delivers a power reserve of roughly 55 hours. It is held to Rolex’s Superlative Chronometer standard (–2/+2 sec/day after casing). The calibre includes instantaneous date change, stop-seconds for precise setting, and robust internal components that lend the watch durable, dependable performance.

Bracelet & Wearability

The 278384rbr-0002 is fitted with a Jubilee bracelet in Oystersteel, composed of five-piece links that ensure both comfort and elegance. The clasp is the concealed folding Crownclasp, which maintains a seamless visual line when closed. This combination ensures that while the case is modest in diameter, the overall presence on the wrist feels balanced and polished.
