Rolex Day-Date 40 228238 Super Clone : 40mm Yellow Gold Black Diamond Dial Overview
The Day-Date 40 228238 is the 40mm yellow gold version of the Rolex Day-Date, paired here with a black dial, simulated diamond hour markers, and a diamond-set bezel. This super clone reproduces the 228238 reference with a President bracelet, the spelled-out day window, and high-grade simulated stones for $1,699. Every proportion, stone setting, and bracelet link follows the genuine reference within tight production tolerance.
Case, Crown and Diamond Bezel 40mm Yellow Gold-Tone Build
The Rolex Day-Date 40 228238 super clone carries a 40mm Oyster case measuring 12mm thick, built on a 904L stainless steel core with a high-grade yellow gold-tone finish for accurate color and long-term wear. Yellow gold gives the Day-Date its traditional President look, and this clone reproduces that warm, deep gold hue across the case and bracelet.
Diamond Bezel Setting and Finishing
The bezel of this 228238 Super Clone holds a ring of high-grade simulated diamonds, set evenly so each stone catches light at a consistent angle. The simulated stones show strong clarity and brilliance close to mined diamonds at a fraction of the cost, and the factory sets each one securely in a yellow gold-tone surround. Mirror-polished surfaces wrap the case for the bright finish gold is known for, and the Twinlock screw-down crown sits at 3 o'clock, protected by a polished crown guard and engraved with the Rolex coronet.
Sapphire Crystal, Cyclops and Caseback
Scratch-resistant sapphire crystal covers the black diamond dial and resists daily knocks for years of clear reading. A Cyclops lens sits above the date at 3 o'clock and magnifies the date 2.5 times for fast legibility. The solid screw-down caseback seals the movement and holds water resistance to 100 meters, supported by the Twinlock crown system.
Black Dial with Simulated Diamond Hour Markers
The black dial of this Day-Date 40 228238 super clone carries a deep, even black that frames the warm yellow gold case and makes each diamond marker stand out with strong contrast. The dial holds high-grade simulated diamond hour markers set in yellow gold-tone surrounds at every position, each stone faceted to catch light against the dark surface.
Day Window, Date and Hands
The spelled-out day display sits in an arched window at 12 o'clock and changes instantaneously at midnight. The date appears at 3 o'clock under the Cyclops lens. Yellow gold-tone baton hands sweep across the dial, with the seconds hand running smoothly at 28,800 vibrations per hour for the genuine Day-Date motion.
Logo, Text and Symmetry
The applied Rolex coronet sits at 12 o'clock above the day window, with "Rolex Oyster Perpetual Day-Date" printed in crisp, fine text. The minute track frames the dial edge with even spacing. The black dial, simulated diamond markers, and diamond-set bezel give the 228238 a bright, formal balance against the warm gold case.
Swiss-Grade Caliber 3255 Clone Movement
The Rolex Day-Date 40 228238 super clone runs on a Swiss-grade automatic movement engineered to reproduce the genuine Rolex Caliber 3255 in feel, frequency, and autonomy. The movement operates at 28,800 vibrations per hour, winds bidirectionally through a free-rotating rotor, and holds a 70-hour power reserve for a full weekend off the wrist.
Accuracy and Performance
Daily deviation holds within -5 to +8 seconds per day after factory regulation, close to the chronometer standard of the genuine Caliber 3255. The smooth sweeping seconds hand and the quiet rotor confirm the Swiss-grade build. The instantaneous day and date both jump cleanly at midnight rather than crawling across the change.

Yellow Gold President Bracelet and Concealed Crownclasp
The Day-Date 40 228238 super clone carries the President bracelet, the three-piece semi-circular link design Rolex created for the Day-Date in 1956. The bracelet uses a yellow gold-tone finish to match the case and the diamond bezel, with polished links that taper smoothly from the lugs toward the wrist.
Wrist Feel, Weight and Comfort
The watch weighs approximately 145 grams on the full bracelet, giving the substantial wrist presence buyers expect from a gold President. The concealed Crownclasp closes flush and hides inside the bracelet, leaving an unbroken band of links around the wrist. The 40mm case and tapered bracelet sit comfortably on wrists from 6.5 to 8 inches.

Buyers select the 228238 Black Diamond for the brightest, most formal look in the Day-Date range, with simulated diamonds across both the bezel and the dial. Champagne dial buyers prefer a quieter, classic President without stones. Platinum buyers choose the smooth bezel and ice blue dial for understated weight. The 228238 Black Diamond Super Clone gives the strongest light play of the three.
Heritage The Day-Date and Diamond-Set Presidents Since 1956
The Rolex Day-Date launched in 1956 as the first wristwatch to display the day of the week spelled out in full in a window on the dial. Rolex paired the model only with platinum and 18k gold from the start, which earned it the "President" name after several heads of state wore it. Rolex has offered factory diamond-set bezels and diamond dials on the Day-Date for decades, positioning the diamond versions as the most formal expression of the line. The Day-Date 40 generation arrived in 2015 with Caliber 3255, and the 228238 reference holds the 18k yellow gold case in that generation. The 228238 Black Diamond Super Clone carries that heritage of the gold President onto the wrist, with high-grade simulated diamonds in place of mined stones.

FAQ
Frequently Asked Questions

Is the Rolex Day-Date 40 228238 a 1:1 super clone?+
Yes, the Rolex Day-Date 40 228238 sold on Super Clone Watches is a 1:1 super clone that reproduces the genuine Rolex reference at 98% visual and dimensional accuracy. The build matches the yellow gold tone, the black dial finish, the diamond setting layout, and the President bracelet geometry within tight tolerance. The price of $1,699 compares to a genuine diamond-set retail near $80,000 at authorized Rolex dealers.
Are the diamonds on this Day-Date 40 228238 super clone real?+
The diamonds on this Day-Date 40 228238 super clone are high-grade simulated stones rather than mined diamonds. The factory selects simulated diamonds with strong clarity and brilliance, then sets each one securely in a yellow gold-tone surround on the bezel and the dial. This approach gives the bright light play of a diamond President at a small fraction of the cost of mined stones.
Does the day and date display change instantly?+
Yes, the day and date display changes instantly on this 228238 super clone. The spelled-out day in the arched window at 12 o'clock and the date at 3 o'clock both jump precisely at midnight rather than crawling across the change. The Caliber 3255 clone movement drives both displays through a single instantaneous mechanism.
How is the watch shipped internationally?+
The Rolex Day-Date 40 228238 super clone ships via DHL Express or FedEx Priority with full insurance and tracked, signature-required delivery.

What movement powers this Day-Date 40 228238 super clone?+
A Swiss-grade automatic clone of Rolex Caliber 3255 powers this Day-Date 40 228238 super clone.

Performance matches the genuine caliber on frequency and autonomy, with a smooth sweeping seconds hand and a quiet winding rotor.
Is the case solid yellow gold or finished steel?+
The case uses a high-grade yellow gold-tone finish over a 904L stainless steel core rather than solid 18k yellow gold.
