Powered by the Caliber 3285 movement for flawless timekeeping across two time zones, this watch is a companion for the global adventurer.
2. Day-Date
Day-Date collection has just gotten a whole lot more interesting. First up, we’ve got the Day-Date 40 in Everose gold, rocking a slate ombré dial that transitions from light to dark, adorned with deconstructed Roman numerals and index hour markers in pink gold, reviving a design first introduced in the '80s.
Then there’s this absolutely stunning version with a pearlized white mother-of-pearl dial, a first for the Day-Date 40, set in 18 ct white gold and shining with iridescent reflections, making it look like you’re wearing the very essence of clouds on your wrist.
And for those who love a splash of color, the Day-Date 36 in Everose gold features a mesmerizing blue-green dial, a new addition to the palette, highlighted by a diamond-set bezel, injecting a vibrant burst of color and luxury into this iconic collection.
3. The Perpetual 1908
This masterpiece now shines in 950 platinum, boasting an exclusive ice blue dial that's a signature of Rolex’s platinum pieces. The dial, with its intricate rice-grain motif created through the meticulous process of guillochage, dances with light, offering a spectacle of reflections that change with every flick of the wrist.
Beyond its stunning aesthetics, the 1908 pairs the prestige of platinum with a comfortable leather strap and houses the Caliber 7140, to deliver a timepiece that's as much about performance as it is about timeless elegance.
4. Rolex Deepsea
For the first time, Rolex dives into 18 ct yellow gold, crafting a divers' watch that not only withstands the extreme pressures of the deep sea up to 3,900 meters but does so with unparalleled style.
Rolex has truly outdone itself with this piece, achieving a harmonious blend of colors across the dial, bezel insert, and compression ring, all while ensuring the watch can endure the intense pressure up to 3,900 meters below. Plus, its Chromalight display offers clarity in the darkest waters, making it not just a watch, but a lifeline for the serious diver.
5. Cosmograph Daytona
The Oyster Perpetual Cosmograph Daytona just got an upgrade that's nothing short of spectacular. We're talking about two new versions that are a symphony of white and black natural mother-of-pearl dials, encased in 18 ct white gold and highlighted by bezels that glitter with brilliant-cut diamonds.
These masterpieces showcase an incredible depth of color and contrast, thanks to a meticulous material selection process and the strategic positioning of the mother-of-pearl discs. At the heart of these beauties beats the Caliber 4131, making them a feast for the eyes and a marvel of watchmaking technology.
