Partially blacked out in Germany by Blaken and splashed with a mischievous purple and green “Joker” colorway, here is a Datejust that trades quiet restraint for pure mischief. Familiar Rolex bones, a stealth twist nobody else at the table will have. Made for the collector who owns every classic and now wants the one that grins back.

Presents itself in mint condition with little to no signs of wear. Glowing at the center, the custom “Joker” dial is a deep purple sunburst with a green minute track, coronet, sweeping hand and Blaken signature, white baton markers and a cheeky red calendar window at three. Wrapping it, the 41mm Oystersteel case and smooth bezel wear a polished black diamond-like carbon coating, stealthy and modern. Balancing the darkness, the stainless steel Jubilee bracelet stays bright, its five piece links catching light in vivid contrast.

Functions include hours, minutes, seconds, and date. Powering it is Rolex’s genuine automatic Caliber 3235, with roughly 70 hours of reserve and Superlative Chronometer precision, all set through the screw down Twinlock crown at three o’clock. After a month at rest, unscrew it counterclockwise and wind clockwise about twenty five to thirty turns. Pull the winder to its first click and quick set the numeral to the day before today, then pull fully to the second click, which stops the movement for precision. Turn it forward through midnight so the day rolls to today and on to the current time, then push home and screw down to lock out moisture.

Comes as a full set, double boxed with guarantee card, Blaken Quality Control card, Blaken International Warranty card, and white hangtag.

Few things let you keep the Rolex you love while quietly breaking every rule you wear it with. A documented Blaken “Joker” surfaces rarely and never lingers, the kind of find that does not wait around for a second look. Meet it once in the metal, and the grin is yours to keep.
