Mother-of-pearl dials are cut from the inner nacre layer of saltwater oyster shells, then sliced to roughly 0.4mm and stabilized against humidity. No two MOP dials are identical, the iridescent grain pattern shifts with each shell section. Reference 228239 puts that material inside the 36mm Day-Date format, the original President sizing from 1956.
White-gold-tone 904L steel case (the 228239 designation flags white gold in the official catalog), fluted bezel turned on a rose-engine lathe pattern. Day window arches across 12, date sits at 3 under the Cyclops.
President bracelet with the semi-circular three-piece links and hidden Crownclasp. Japanese Miyota 9015 in the $359 build, Swiss 3255-clone for the $999 tier with 70-hour reserve. Sapphire crystal, screw-down crown, 100m pressure rating.
