Signature Design Elements
-
Yellow Rolesor: Rolex’s proprietary term for the marrying of two metals. The bezel, winding crown, and center links of the bracelet are crafted from 18 ct yellow gold, while the middle case and outer links are made from robust Oystersteel.
-
The Fluted Bezel: Originally designed for a functional purpose (screwing the bezel down to ensure water-tightness), the fluting has evolved into a striking, light-reflecting design signature that instantly marks the watch as a Rolex.
-
The Jubilee Bracelet: Designed specifically for the birth of the Datejust line, this supple, five-piece link metal bracelet conforms comfortably to the wrist and catches light across its alternating polished and satin-finished surfaces.
-
The Cyclops Lens: Invented by Rolex in the early 1950s, this magnifying lens bulges over the date aperture at the 3 o’clock position, magnifying the date numeral by 2.5 times for effortless legibility.
