About the Datejust 278240

Make a date of a day This Oyster Perpetual Datejust 31 in Oystersteel features a bright black dial and an Oyster bracelet. Bright black dial - Limitless freedom. Lacquer combines almost limitless freedom of colour with intensity and a smooth finish. The lacquering technique consists of successively depositing six thin layers of lacquer on a brass base plate. A colourless varnish is then applied to give the colour or shade all of its depth and shine. Once the varnish is dry, the surface of the dial is polished to magnify the colour; the dial is then ready to be pad printed and receive its appliques. Oystersteel - Highly resistant to corrosion. Rolex uses Oystersteel for its steel watch cases. Specially developed by the brand, Oystersteel belongs to the 904L steel family, alloys most commonly used in high-technology and in the aerospace and chemical industries, where maximum resistance to corrosion is essential. Oystersteel is extremely resistant, offers an exceptional finish once polished and maintains its beauty even in the harshest environments. The Oyster bracelet - Alchemy of form and function. The Oyster bracelet is a perfect alchemy of form and function, aesthetics and technology, designed to be both robust and comfortable. It is equipped with an Oysterclasp and the Easylink comfort extension link, also exclusive to Rolex. This ingenious system allows the wearer to increase the bracelet length by approximately 5 mm, providing additional comfort in any circumstance. The Cyclops lens - A magnifying lens. The Cyclops lens is one of the most distinctive Rolex features, and one of the most recognizable. Named after the one-eyed giant of Greek mythology, the Cyclops lens magnifies the watch’s emblematic date display for easy reading. Behind the Cyclops, as with every feature of a Rolex timepiece, lies a history of invention, research and development, and the endless search for perfection.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is this Rolex authentic?

Every watch is inspected and authenticated in house before delivery, and its movement is covered by our own one year warranty.

How fast is shipping?

Fully insured overnight shipping with signature required, or collect in person by appointment at our New York, Los Angeles or Miami locations.

Is a warranty included?

Yes. Every watch we sell includes our one year limited warranty on the movement. If the watch is still inside its Rolex guarantee, Rolex handles movement repairs first. Full terms are on our Authenticity and Warranty page.

What is the return policy?

You have 3 days from delivery to inspect the watch. If it is not as described, does not run or is not genuine, we take it back and cover return shipping. If you change your mind, return it unworn within 3 days with a 10% restocking fee. Purchases completed in person are final. Every watch ships with a numbered security seal and is photographed and filmed with that seal in place, so leave the seal fitted while you decide; every return is filmed as it is opened and matched against those images before a refund is issued.

How do I pay?

Bank wire is our primary payment method, and cash is available for Miami pickup. We confirm live availability and exact condition first, then send your invoice and secure bank wire instructions. No payment is ever taken through the website. For a shipped watch you can also choose a protected purchase through Escrow.com, where the money reaches us only after you accept the watch, for a fee of 5% of the price, minimum $500.
