Q Factory (QF) Weighted Edition — President Bracelet

The Q Factory (QF) weighted edition of the Rolex Day-Date 40 (Ref. 228238) stands as a technical benchmark in material replication. By utilizing a high-density tungsten alloy core, this model achieves a substantial mass of 183.6g, closely emulating the tactile presence of the 205g genuine solid gold piece.

At the core of this reference is the Super Clone 3255 automatic caliber, built to mimic the genuine Rolex architecture rather than relying on modified ETA bases. It features the correct hand-setting direction and an instantaneous day and date jump at midnight. Power reserve is Approximately 36 hours.

The 40mm x 11.8mm case is wrapped in 18K yellow gold, achieving a convincing color profile against genuine counterparts. Its champagne sunburst dial features precise radial finishing, complemented by a sharp fluted bezel and Chromalight-filled stick markers.

Technical Specifications

THE BEZELFluted 18K Gold Wrapped

Why Q Factory for This Reference?

Many collectors ask: ‘Why not GMF?’

While GMF produces highly regarded weighted Day-Dates, Q Factory (QF) is often selected for this specific 228238 reference due to its superior dial sunburst execution and a slightly more accurate 18K yellow gold tone out of the box. The tungsten mass distribution in the QF case also provides a marginally better wrist balance.

Full Disclosure: Because the tungsten mass is primarily concentrated in the watch head, the piece can feel slightly top-heavy on the wrist compared to the uniform density of a genuine solid gold watch and bracelet.

Collector Q&A

Q: How does the weight of this QF tungsten version compare to the genuine Rolex 228238?

A: This Q Factory replica weighs approximately 183.6g due to its tungsten alloy core. The genuine solid 18K gold model weighs around 205g. While not an exact match, it is significantly heavier and more convincing than standard 135g steel replicas.

Q: Does the day and date change instantaneously at midnight?

A: Yes, the Super Clone 3255 movement replicates the genuine Rolex mechanism, featuring an instantaneous jump for both the day and date discs at midnight, rather than a slow, gradual transition.

Q: Will the 18K gold wrapping fade or tarnish over time?

A: The QF utilizes a thick 18K gold wrapping technique over the tungsten and steel base. While highly durable under normal wear, it is still a plated surface and should be kept away from harsh chemicals, abrasives, and saltwater to maintain its finish.

Q: Is the President bracelet also weighted with tungsten?

A: The primary tungsten mass is concentrated in the watch case and caseback. The bracelet contains standard steel cores wrapped in gold. This distribution can make the watch feel slightly top-heavy compared to the perfectly balanced genuine solid gold piece.
