Rolex Day-Date 228235 KW Super Clone: 40mm Everose Gold White Dial with Caliber 3255

Case, Crown and Crystal: 40mm Everose Gold Build

The Day-Date 228235 KW super clone features a 40mm Everose gold-tone case measuring 11.8mm thick, built on a 904L stainless steel core with high-grade Everose PVD for long-term color retention. The 2015 Day-Date 40 redesign tightened the lug shape and increased the polished surface area against the brushed flanks, and this KW clone holds that updated geometry at CNC-machined tolerance.

Case Geometry and Finishing

The case finishing follows the Day-Date's dress-luxury grammar with the warmth of Everose tone across every surface. Polished facets frame the case flanks and the fluted bezel for high-contrast light play. Satin brushing covers the top of the lugs in a horizontal grain that catches reflection along a single axis. The Twinlock crown screws down against the case middle and shields the movement under standard daily-wear pressure.

Sapphire Crystal, Caseback and Cyclops

A flat sapphire crystal with anti-reflective coating covers the dial of the Day-Date 228235 KW. The integrated Cyclops lens magnifies the 3 o'clock date aperture by 2.5x in line with the genuine 228235 specification. The solid screw-down caseback hides the Caliber 3255 clone behind a polished surface with no engraving. The fluted Everose bezel screws into the case middle and keeps alignment with the dial axis through the life of the watch.

White Lacquer Dial with Applied Rose Gold Baton Markers

The glossy white lacquer dial is the defining attribute of the Day-Date 228235 KW white-dial configuration, and this super clone uses the smooth high-gloss finish that gives the genuine reference its dress-formal character. The dial surface stays free of sunburst or texture, holding a uniform white tone that lets the applied rose gold-tone baton markers do the visual work. KW Factory applies each baton marker in faceted rose gold-tone metal with crisp clean edges that catch light along the same axis as the polished case bevels.

Day Display, Hands and Cyclops Date

The day-of-week aperture at 12 o'clock spells out the full day name in black text on a white background, with English supported by default and additional language discs available from the genuine Rolex catalog list. The faceted dauphine-style Day-Date hands carry Chromalight luminescence for night legibility while holding the dress-watch proportions the 40mm case demands. The date at 3 o'clock sits under the Cyclops lens with the same 2.5x magnification the genuine 228235 uses, presented on a white date disc with black print for continuity with the dial.

Rolex Coronet, Text Lockup and Sub-Surface Detail

The applied Rolex coronet at 12 o'clock and the printed "Day-Date" line at 6 o'clock follow the typography refresh introduced on the 228235 generation. The dial text reads "Rolex Oyster Perpetual Day-Date" in 4 lines above 6 o'clock, with the "Superlative Chronometer Officially Certified" attribution matching the 2015 onward Day-Date text format. The white lacquer base holds clean edges around every applied marker with no glue creep visible under 10x magnification.

KW Factory Swiss-Grade Clone of the Rolex Caliber 3255

The Day-Date 228235 KW super clone runs on a Swiss-grade automatic movement engineered by KW Factory to track the genuine Caliber 3255 on feel, frequency, and 70-hour autonomy. The movement operates at 28,800 vibrations per hour, drives the central hours, minutes, and sweep seconds, and powers the day display at 12 and the date at 3 through the same instantaneous jump architecture the original uses. KW Factory tunes each unit on a Swiss-style escapement layout that mirrors the Chronergy geometry visible in genuine Caliber 3255 disassembly photos.

Movement Specifications

The technical specifications of the KW Caliber 3255 clone movement are listed below.

• Type: KW Factory Swiss-grade automatic clone of Rolex Caliber 3255
• Frequency: 28,800 vph (4 Hz)
• Power Reserve: 70 hours
• Jewels: 31
• Winding: Bidirectional Perpetual rotor
• Functions: Hours, minutes, sweep seconds, day at 12, date at 3

Accuracy and Finishing

Daily deviation on the Day-Date 228235 KW holds within -2 to +4 seconds per day after factory regulation, tracking close to the Rolex Superlative Chronometer -2/+2 standard. The movement carries circular graining on the mainplate, polished bevels on the bridges, and a satin finish on the perpetual rotor. The bidirectional winding rotor delivers steady reserve build-up during normal wrist motion through the day and recovers full autonomy inside a single winder cycle.

President Bracelet in Everose Gold Tone

The 228235 KW super clone features the President 3-link bracelet finished in Everose gold tone across the entire structure. The bracelet uses 3 semi-circular links per row, with the center links sitting fully polished and the outer links carrying the same Everose tone in a matching polished finish. The President bracelet sits exclusively on the Day-Date in Rolex's catalog, and this KW clone holds the link curvature that gives the bracelet its dress-luxury wrist drape against the white dial.

Concealed Crownclasp and Wrist Feel

The bracelet closes with a concealed Crownclasp folding mechanism that hides the closure under the center link at the 6 o'clock position of the wrist. The Crownclasp opens with the applied Rolex crown medallion as the release point and closes flush against the wrist with no visible seam. The Day-Date 228235 KW weighs approximately 175g on the full bracelet, matching the wrist feel of the genuine Everose Day-Date within a 5-gram margin.

Wrist Fit and Comfort

The President bracelet sits flush on 6.5-inch to 8-inch wrists, with the 3-link articulation following the wrist curve closely. The 40mm case wears closer to a modern 41mm because of the fluted bezel diameter and the integrated lug profile. The Everose tone holds its warmth against pale and tan skin tones, giving the 228235 KW its signature dress-formal presence without crossing into yellow gold territory.
