Rolex Datejust 41 Everose Rolesor — Slate Gray Green Roman Wimbledon Dial | Ref. 126301

The so-called 'Wimbledon' dial — characterised by a pattern of alternating colour zones that recalls the colour palette of the All England Club — appears in the Datejust 41 reference 126301 as a particularly distinctive configuration. Here the slate grey and green tones of the dial are set against an Everose Rolesor case: stainless steel with 18 ct Everose gold bezel, crown, and centre bracelet links, producing a warm bi-material contrast.

Calibre 3235 powers the 126301, bringing a 70-hour power reserve, Chronergy escapement, and Parachrom hairspring to the 41 mm Oyster case. The movement's -2/+2 seconds per day Superlative Chronometer standard is tested by Rolex post-casing, ensuring real-world accuracy beyond standard COSC parameters. Roman numeral hour markers on the Wimbledon dial add typographic texture to an already visually layered face, and the Cyclops lens over the date window at three o'clock provides 2.5x magnification consistent across the Datejust family.

Wimbledon dial variants carry collector appeal disproportionate to their production volume — their distinctive patterning makes them immediately identifiable on the wrist and separates them visually from the catalogue's more conventional single-tone dials. The Everose Rolesor platform adds precious metal warmth without the full commitment of a gold-only reference. For collectors building a diverse Datejust holding or seeking a single reference that creates genuine conversation, the 126301 Wimbledon dial is among the more rewarding choices in the current lineup.
