Timeless Tales : The Watch That Grows With You
A Tribute to the Palm Dial Datejust
Some watches are tools.
Some are trophies.
But every once in a while, a watch becomes something else entirely — a quiet reflection of who you are and where you’re going.
The Rolex Datejust 36, reference 126234, with its rare green palm motif dial, is one of those watches.
Discontinued not long after its release, this model already holds a kind of quiet legend among collectors. But beyond rarity or resale, the palm dial speaks to something more personal. A visual metaphor for growth. Calm. Nature. Strength through stillness.
Unlike Rolex's more aggressive or maximalist designs, the palm dial is humble but not plain. It’s confident but not loud. And in a world of noisy branding, that kind of subtle presence becomes its own form of luxury.
We recently received one in our collection — a complete set with box, card, tags, and papers. It’s in excellent condition, just lightly worn, and full of character. The 36mm size wears universally well, the fluted white gold bezel catches just enough light, and the dial? It’s the kind you can stare at when you're standing still — not checking the time, just remembering where you are.
Watches like this don't come around often — and when they do, they're not just bought, they're claimed.
If you've been looking for a timepiece that speaks to more than just prestige, this might be your moment. Not because it’s rare. But because it resonates.
