Rolex Datejust 31mm Grey Diamond VI Jubilee 278274

Overview The Datejust 31mm 278274 uses a single prominent diamond-set marker — eleven brilliant-cut diamonds at the VI — as its focal point rather than distributing gemstone setting evenly across all twelve positions. That choice produces a dial with clear hierarchy: the grey sunray surface and standard diamond markers read as the base, and the VI reads as the accent. In White Rolesor at 31mm, the configuration is precise in its intent — formal without the uniform sparkle that fully diamond-set dials carry. The case is 31mm in White Rolesor — Oystersteel construction with a fluted 18-carat white gold bezel. The grey sunray dial carries applied diamond hour markers throughout, with the VI differentiated by its eleven brilliant-cut diamond setting; the contrast between the directional sunray surface and the stone-set markers is where the configuration earns its character. Jubilee bracelet — five-link construction that has been the standard Datejust pairing since 1945. Cyclops lens at 3 o'clock; 100-metre water resistance. The Calibre 2236 is Rolex's mid-size automatic, developed specifically for the 31mm Datejust range rather than shared with the larger catalogue. It carries a Syloxi silicon hairspring and delivers a 55-hour power reserve, certified as a Superlative Chronometer to ±2 seconds per day. For a buyer comparing this to the 28mm Lady-Datejust, the 2236 is the more current generation over the older Calibre 2231 that powers it. Within the 278274 range, grey is the more restrained of the available dial colours — it carries the diamond-set VI without the warmth of chocolate or the brightness of white, which gives it the widest formal range. Against fully diamond-set dial variants in the 31mm Datejust lineup, the Grey Diamond VI is the specification for a buyer who wants a clear gemstone accent without a dial that reads predominantly as jewellery. We consider this the most versatile configuration in the 278274 family: formal enough to justify the White Rolesor construction, restrained enough for daily wear without the dial becoming the primary statement.
