Rolex Day Date 2
The Rolex Day-Date II, introduced in 2008, built on the legacy of the original Day-Date released in 1956—yeah, that "President" one—and brought with it a bold 41mm case size that really shifted things. It’s iconic, seriously, with its day spelled out at 12 o’clock and always in precious metals. At Tropical Watch, we’ve seen these pieces draw collectors looking for something timeless but, you know, with presence.
