Overview
The Rolex Datejust 41 reference 126334 represents the contemporary expression of one of watchmaking's most enduring dress-watch lineages, pairing a 41 mm Oyster case in Oystersteel with white gold accents. Introduced in 2017, it is powered by the in-house Calibre 3235, one of Rolex's most technically accomplished movements. A broad palette of dials — including the sought-after Wimbledon slate, blue, silver, and green variants — ensures the reference spans formal and smart-casual contexts with equal authority.
History
The Datejust line traces its origins to 1945, when Rolex introduced the first self-winding wristwatch to display the date in a magnified aperture at 3 o'clock — a configuration that has defined the collection ever since. The 41 mm case size was formalised in the current generation, reflecting a broader industry shift toward slightly larger dress watches while preserving the Datejust's classical proportions. Reference 126334 arrived in 2017 as part of a comprehensive movement upgrade across the Datejust family, replacing the earlier Calibre 3135 with the more advanced 3235. The reference has remained in continuous production, cementing its place as a cornerstone of Rolex's core catalogue.
Notable points
- Calibre 3235 features a Chronergy escapement and a 70-hour power reserve, representing a significant technical advance over its predecessor.
- The two-tone Oystersteel and white gold construction — known in Rolex nomenclature as Rolesor — distinguishes the 126334 from all-steel Datejust references.
- The Wimbledon dial, characterised by its slate green tone and Roman numeral chapter ring, has become one of the most recognisable and collector-discussed variants in the modern Datejust range.
- At 41 mm, the case occupies a versatile middle ground between the classic 36 mm Datejust and larger sport-oriented Rolex models, broadening its wearability across wrist sizes.
- The reference accepts both Oyster and Jubilee bracelets, allowing collectors to meaningfully alter the watch's character and formality without changing the case.
