Fluted bezel
The Rolex fluted bezel is a mark of
distinction. Originally, the fluting of the Oyster bezel had a functional purpose:
it served to screw the bezel onto the case helping to ensure the waterproofness of
the watch. It was therefore identical to the fluting on the case back, which was
also screwed onto the case for waterproofness, using specific Rolex tools. Over
time, the fluting became an aesthetic element, a genuine Rolex signature feature.
Today the fluted bezel is a mark of distinction, in gold on this Datejust
36.
Mint green dial
The sunray finish creates delicate
light reflections on many dials in the Oyster Perpetual collection. It is obtained
using masterful brushing techniques that create grooves running outwards from the
centre of the dial. Light is diffused consistently along each engraving, creating a
characteristic subtle glow that moves depending on the position of the wrist. Once
the sunray finish has been completed, the dial colour is applied using Physical
Vapour Deposition or electroplating. A light coat of varnish gives the dial its
final look.
White Rolesor
Gold is coveted for its lustre and
nobility. Steel reinforces strength and reliability. Together, they harmoniously
combine the best of their properties. A true Rolex signature, Rolesor has featured
on Rolex models since the early 1930s, and was trademarked as a name in 1933. It is
one of the prominent pillars of the Oyster collection.
Model availability
All Rolex watches are assembled by hand with the utmost care to ensure exceptional quality. Such high standards naturally restrict Rolex production capacity and, at times, the demand for Rolex watches outpaces this capacity.
Therefore, the availability of certain models may be limited. New Rolex watches are exclusively sold by Official Rolex Jewelers, who receive regular deliveries and independently manage the allocation and sales of watches to customers.
Ben Bridge is proud to be part of the worldwide network of Official Rolex Jewelers and can provide information on the availability of Rolex watches.
