Sundust is Rolex’s name for a warm pink-gold dial finish that exists only on Everose gold references. This replica Rolex Day-Date 228235 sundust dial reproduces that distinctive copper-champagne gradient on a 40mm rose gold case with fluted bezel, capturing the colour shift that moves between warm amber and pale rose depending on the angle of light hitting the surface.

The 228235 Up Close: Case, Dial and Bracelet
Rose gold and sundust were made for each other. Rolex introduced the sundust dial specifically for its Everose gold references, and the 228235 is the result — a warm, luminous surface that transitions between copper and champagne depending on the light. The colour sits in a category that no standard “gold” or “champagne” label quite captures.
The 40mm case is crowned with a fluted bezel, and the President bracelet extends the rose gold tone from case to clasp without interruption. Day and date windows at 12 and 3 o’clock are framed by the classic Cyclops magnification lens. For other Day-Date references in gold and platinum, visit the Day-Date collection.
Movement Options: Swiss vs Japanese
Two automatic calibers are available, both powering the day-date display.
- Swiss Automatic — 28,800 vph, approximately 48-hour power reserve. Refined decoration on rotor and movement plates for a premium feel through the caseback.
- Japanese Automatic (Miyota) — 21,600 vph, roughly 42-hour reserve. Reliable, cost-effective option with global service availability.
