The Rolex Day-Date II, introduced in 2008, was Rolex’s bold move to appeal to fans of larger watches with its 41mm case—a significant size increase for the brand’s signature Day-Date. This modern iteration was produced for just seven years, as it was discontinued in 2015 and replaced by the Day-Date 40, which maintained the larger look but offered a slightly refined 40mm case. The Day-Date II remains a popular choice among collectors who appreciate its contemporary presence and classic Day-Date design.
