Today, we'll be taking a look at this Datejust 36, new for 2021, because it does have what is known as the Wimbledon dial previously only available on the Datejust 41. This one, the Datejust 36, making it the new 2021 version. I'll be going over the dial, the case, the bezel, the crown functions, as well as the movement, and the jubilee bracelet. And I'll be giving you my thoughts on these throughout this video. So again, this is the Datejust 31, with the slate roman dial, also known as the Wimbledon dial. White fluted gold bezel or fluted white gold bezel, rather, with a jubilee bracelet. So it's in the name, Datejust 36, from finger to thumb, that's 36 millimeters between two and eight, the 2 o'clock and 8 o'clock position, or also the 10 o'clock and 4 o'clock position, same distance, same diameter, same 36 millimeters. You have the model block metal case with the screw-down case back and the Rolex winding crown to ensure water resistance down to a hundred meters or 330 feet below sea level. You also have a full stainless steel or rather oyster steel construction, meaning that it is Rolex's own proprietary blend of steel and other minerals to create a very high polish while also maintaining the strength and durability of the finest and strongest steels. Full high polish, as you can see on every surface here. All right, and standing on the front of this case, we have a white gold fluted bezel. So originally the fluted bezel was made with the intent of screwing directly onto the front of this case to ensure the waterproofness, but you know, modern technology and advancements over time made that not all that necessary anymore. So it's kept as a mark of distinction. It's always made in some sort of gold, and this case, white gold to match the overall look of the watch. It makes sense. And taking a look at this dial, it's the Wimbledon dial. The dial pattern and coloring here is nothing new, but the fact that it's offered on the Datejust 36 is what makes it new. Because again, what I said earlier, reiterating, is that it was only available on the Datejust 41, not any other size. So moving down to a smaller size, it really shows that, you know, Rolex are sort of opening up their brand and just sort of allowing people who have smaller wrists to enjoy the same dial, you know, when they don't actually have the 41 that can actually fit on their wrist. So for example, you know, for wrists like mine, or even smaller, you can actually get the Wimbledon dial yourself. There are the, sort of like dark green, almost black Roman numerals on here with an outline of a lighter green, sort of like a mid value green, on the Roman numerals, all right? And also a loomed index marker at the nine o'clock position, a stick marker, sort of counterbalancing the date aperture. Small on the dial, but big under the cyclops lens as part of the sapphire crystal. Nice and scratch resistant as well. All right. You also have white gold hands and loomed hands as well, and a white gold Rolex crown at the 12 o'clock position. So if I turn out the lights here, you'll see that the luminescence here is actually quite unique because, well, it's only at the nine o'clock stick marker and the hour and minute hands, nothing else. So quite distinct and very noticeable. So when you see this sort of luminescence pattern on a watch in a low-light situation, you know it's a Wimbledon dial. All right, now, turning the lights back on, and taking a look at the crown functions here, nothing too different from previous generations, or even within this generation. Simply unwind the crown at the three o'clock position. The first position for the crown allows you to wind the watch. So if you're at a dead stop, about 20 to 30 full winds will get you to the full power reserve. Rather simple there. All right, if you pull the crown out to the next position, you can actually advance the date forward by one. It's a quick set. So you can do this at any time of the day. It's a quarter turn to advance it by one each time. And if you find yourself on, say an irregularly numbered month, like April, April 30th, for example, just move it over once and then wait for the hour hand to roll past midnight or vice versa. You'll be on the 1st of May. Nice and easy. All right, pull the crown out to the final and only other position and note that the seconds hand does in fact stop there. So you can actually move the minute hand and adjust the time, well, I'm having a hard time here. Okay, there we go. You can move the minute hand based on the position of that seconds hand, and by extension the hour hand as well. And using the minute track at the peripheral of the dial, Arabic numerals for every five minutes, you can place the minute hand wherever it needs to go based on the position of that seconds hand. Once you have it nice and synced up to an atomic clock, press the crown back in to start out that seconds hand once more and be sure to screw the crown back tightly against the case to ensure the superior water resistance. All right. So what makes all of this work? It is the in-house made caliber 32, 35, made in-house by Rolex. Again, you can't see through the case back, but you do have the added security, that strength of the oyster steel keeping it nice and water tight. It gives you a plus or minus two second per day, time differential precision after casing, which gives it that superlative chronometer certification as printed on this and every Rolex dial. It has the center hour, minute, and seconds hands with instantaneous date, with the rapid setting and the stop seconds for precise time setting. All of which I had just demonstrated using the winding crown functions. The oscillator on the inside features a pair of magnetic blue pair chrome hairspring with high-performance paraflex shock absorbers. So what that means is that you can basically get relatively close to circuitry, magnets, your refrigerator, for example, or you can work on some computers and it won't be affected by the electromagnetic static or, you know, the waves coming off of those machines. Basically the movement will be keeping track of time, no problem. And you can still take a few bumps here and there. Thanks to the paraflex shock absorbers, keeps it nice and in time. The winding on the inside does have a bi-directional self winding perpetual rotor center mounted. So that basically means once you have this watch wound manually using the winding crown, put it on your wrist and the natural movements of your wrist will wind that perpetual rotor on the inside, which then winds the mainspring barrel and charges the watch without having you, without you having to actually wind it again. The approximate power reserve for this watch is about 70 hours. So basically you can set this down Friday evening, pick it back up Monday morning, ready to go, ready to conduct business. And no need to wind the watch, because there'll be keeping all of that power within the power reserve. Just wear it all of Monday, and you'll be back up to the full power reserve, no need to wind the watch at all. While I'm zoomed out here, you can actually see that the framing here is with the jubilee bracelet. It gives a very, very nice sort of lustrous look overall. Three high polished links down the center, two satin brush finishes, satin brush finished links on the outside, giving you five-piece links across. They are semicircular links. So taking a look at the side profile here, nice high polish on the sides here, and satin brush finishing underneath. All right, very luxurious looking and feeling. Feels very good on the outside, even better on the inside. There's a gentle taper down to the Rolex folding clasp here, with the raised Rolex Chrome logo. So to open it just simply lift the top nice and easy and it unhooks very easily there. You have the full steel construction with the Rolex stamp logo on the inside. And the advantage to having the oyster folding clasp, is that you have the easy link five millimeter extension. So if you have this watch sized perfectly to your wrist, nice and snug, your wrist is going to expand throughout the day over time due to the hydration levels of your body, as well as the temperature outside. So, happens to everyone you're not alone. Simply reach under the clasp here, pull it straight out, and it clips open to allow you, basically, another jubilee link or another five millimeters of comfort extension. So you can continue to wear your watch even after your wrist swells, almost imperceptibly, but you'll be able to feel it. And you'll be able to continue to wear your watch like so. And when you no longer need it, simply fold it back in on itself, press it back into your clasp and there you go, back to what it was before. And while I'm here, I'll try it on my wrist. Give you my thoughts as to how it wears on a seven inch wrist, that's my measurement, 36 millimeters for a case size. You already know it's my favorite size for a Rolex because it just fits perfectly. I have a perfect framing from the 12 o'clock and 6 o'clock sides of the watch from the bracelet, and a very easy, very clear view of the dial as well. Very good compositional elements here. Everything's spaced out very nicely, very good sense of white space and all the details here are just fine for me. Taking a look at the overall readability. Well, it's not the easiest to read dial, but it is the most recognizable, or at least one of the most recognizable dials from Rolex. So keep that in mind when you're shopping around, the Wimbledon, one of the easiest to spot when it comes to the, you know, the overall color composition and the fact that there's a single stick marker at the nine o'clock position. Looking at it straight down the wrist, there's a tiny bit of space under the log. So if you have a wrist smaller than seven inches, maybe six, maybe even five and a half, that's still fine. You can still wear this plenty of spacing among these links with zero tolerance, means that basically you can continue to wear this watch, it won't pinch your skin, won't pull hairs from your wrist either. Feels very good, extremely supple and soft on the wrist and it vents your wrist very well because of all the spacing among these jubilee links, as you can see through them, or at least through the intermediate portions of this bracelet. So very good from Rolex there. It feels very comfortable on the wrist as well and not too heavy, but you do have, when you do have this on your wrist, you will know that it's certainly a Rolex, nice and robust. It looks very good as well. And with the overall, pretty much neutral color scheme here, you can wear this with anything. And I think that's really what lends this to its popularity, sort of like an unspoken, unknown, or sort of an implicit sort of a meaning for this watch, is that the neutral color scheme means that you can wear this with anything, it's therefore extremely versatile. And the Roman numeral hour marks. Well, even though it does indicate sort of like that, the sort of Wimbledon-esque sort of color scheme, you know, with the green tennis fields and such, it does have that art deco overall look. So very distinctive and quite classy in its own right. So, that's all I have to say about this. Let us know what you think down in the comments below.
