Rolex Quietly Updated the Datejust 41 and 36 in 2026 With New "Deconstructed" Roman Numeral Dials

40-42mm

Outside the W&W 2026 spotlight, Rolex has redrawn the applied Roman numerals on every Datejust 41 and Datejust 36 with a Roman-numeral configuration in the 2026 catalogue. The new sans-serif numerals are built from multiple discrete elements (the IIII becomes four batons, the VIII four elements), bringing the Datejust visually closer to the Day-Date and rolling out across mint green, slate, chocolate, rosé, bright black, white, and green ombré dials in steel, two-tone Rolesor and full Everose configurations.
