Description
ARF Rolex Datejust 31 m278288rbr-0005 President in 18k Yellow Gold
ARF delivers a compelling 31mm Datejust by successfully replicating the distinct malachite dial and maintaining a precise 10.4mm case thickness.
Powered by Clone 2236 Movement
The Clone 2236 automatic caliber is specifically engineered to fit the smaller 31mm case architecture without compromising the date complication geometry. It operates at 28,800 vibrations per hour, providing a smooth sweep for the seconds hand, and features instantaneous date setting at midnight. All mechanisms are rigorously checked against before dispatch.
Standard clone base movements in this mid-size category typically achieve 卤8��12 s/day when properly regulated.
- �� Power Reserve: Approximately 36 hours
- �� Complications: Centre hour, minute, and seconds hands; instantaneous date with rapid setting
- �� Winding Direction: Bidirectional
Technical Specifications
The monobloc middle case measures exactly 31mm in diameter and 10.4mm thick, ensuring a proportionate fit on the wrist. Total weight is 78.5g.
Features a simulated malachite texture with applied roman numerals and a synthetic diamond-set VI marker, coated with Chromalight on the hands.
The fixed bezel is set with synthetic stones to replicate the rbr reference, offering adequate light play under natural lighting conditions.
Constructed with semi-circular three-piece links and finished with 18k yellow gold plating. Secured by a folding Oysterclasp with tight tolerances.
Why ARF for This Reference?
Many collectors ask: Why not GMF?
ARF��s 18k yellow gold plating tone is widely regarded as less brassy and closer to the genuine Rolex alloy compared to its competitors. Furthermore, ARF achieves superior tight tolerances on the bracelet end links, minimizing unwanted play and replicating the solid feel of a genuine President bracelet.
Full Disclosure: The synthetic diamonds on the bezel and dial lack the deep internal fire of genuine factory-set stones when examined under a horological loupe.

Collector Q&A
Q: How accurate is the 18k yellow gold plating tone on this ARF model?
A: ARF is well-regarded for producing a warmer, more accurate yellow gold tone compared to the overly bright or brassy hues found on lower-tier replicas. However, like all plated watches, it lacks the sheer mass and density of solid 18k gold.
Q: Does the malachite dial have real stone texture?
A: The dial is a high-quality print designed to simulate the banding and texture of natural malachite. While convincing at wrist distance, macro inspection will reveal it is not cut from genuine semi-precious stone.
Q: Are the diamonds on the bezel and dial genuine?
A: No, the stones used on the m278288rbr replica are synthetic, typically cubic zirconia or moissanite. They offer decent light play but will not test as real diamonds or match the internal fire of genuine Rolex factory-set stones.
Q: What is a known technical quirk of the Clone 2236 movement?
A: Because the Clone 2236 is a smaller caliber designed specifically for the 31mm case, the winding rotor can occasionally be slightly more audible than larger 3235 clones. A professional movement service and light lubrication can significantly reduce this rotor noise.
