The Rolex Datejust 31 reference 178240 represents the mid-size 31mm Datejust 31 
in full Oystersteel — the elegantly proportioned middle ground between the larger
36mm men’s Datejust and the smaller 26mm Lady-Datejust. Released in 2009 as the 
mid-size complement to the 116200 men’s Datejust, the 178240 carried the proportions
and styling of the modern Datejust scaled down for wearers who prefer a more refined
watch presence on the wrist. The 31mm Oystersteel Oyster case is paired with the
smooth polished Oystersteel bezel and the three-link Oyster bracelet with concealed
Crownclasp — a refined choice that distinguishes the 178240 from the fluted-bezel
Datejust 31 references with their busier visual profile. The pink dial features 
applied luminous hour markers, polished white gold hands, and the cyclops-magnified
date window at 3 o’clock — the date complication that has defined the Datejust line
since the model debuted in 1945. Powered by the Rolex Caliber 2235 self-winding 
chronometer movement — Rolex’s smaller-diameter mechanical caliber developed specifically
for the mid-size and ladies’ Oyster Perpetual line — the 178240 beats at 28,800 
vibrations per hour, carries COSC certification, and delivers a 48-hour power reserve.
Sapphire crystal, screw-down Twinlock crown, 100 meters water resistance. Pre-owned.
