Datejust: 36 mm, Oystersteel and yellow gold, silver, diamond-set, m126283rbr-0017

Roman VI and IX gold, set with twenty-four diamonds, are featured on this dial. Numerous dials in the Oyster Perpetual collection feature delicate light reflections thanks to the sunray finish. Expert brushing techniques are used to achieve it, resulting in grooves that radiate outward from the dial’s center. Every engraving has light that is uniformly diffused, giving the piece a distinctive, subtle glow that changes with wrist position. Following the completion of the sunray finish, electroplating or physical vapor deposition are used to apply the dial color. The dial is finished with a thin layer of varnish.

Advanced high technology is used in the creation, development, and manufacturing of Rolex bracelets and clasps, as well as in the rigorous testing that goes into them. Additionally, aesthetic controls by the human eye ensure flawless beauty, just like with all the watch’s components. The Oyster Perpetual Datejust was introduced in 1945, and the Jubilee, a flexible and cozy five-piece link metal bracelet, was created specifically for the occasion.
