Cased in 41 millimetres of Oystersteel with a lustrous Yellow Rolesor bezel (a nod to 100 years), it embraces a brand new \u2018slate\u2019 dial \u2013 a fresh hue for the Oyster Perpetual family. Marking the celebrations, the inscription \u2018100 years\u2019 appears at 6 o\u2019clock, replacing the traditionally etched \u2018Swiss-Made\u2019. Upon closer inspection, at each five-minute interval of the minute track, a square draped in Rolex\u2019s emblematic green hue complements its central logo. The dial is also graced by Chromalight treatment, offering a long-lasting blue luminescence. Waterproof to 100 metres with a screw-down caseback, it\u2019s equipped with the Manufacture\u2019s self-winding calibre 3230 and blue Parachrom hairspring, delivering a \u20132\/+2 sec\/day precision and a 70-hour power reserve.

Every letter of \u2018Rolex\u2019 takes a playful and artistic form, drawing inspiration from the brand\u2019s dial-making heritage. With each of the ten dial hues applied one after the other, every motif is delicately configured to perfection. Cased in 36 millimetres of Oystersteel, it\u2019s extremely resistant to corrosion and scratches, with a matching three-link Oyster bracelet. Inside, Rolex\u2019s self-winding in-house calibre 3230 uses a blue Parachrom hairspring and Paraflex shock absorbers, delivering a 70-hour power reserve and Superlative Chronometer Certification.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>The Golden Age: Oyster Perpetual 28 & 34<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1050\" height=\"466\" src=\"https:\/\/www.kapoorwatch.com\/blogs\/wp-content\/uploads\/Internal-3-255.webp\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-16826\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.kapoorwatch.com\/blogs\/wp-content\/uploads\/Internal-3-255.webp 1050w, https:\/\/www.kapoorwatch.com\/blogs\/wp-content\/uploads\/Internal-3-255-768x341.webp 768w, https:\/\/www.kapoorwatch.com\/blogs\/wp-content\/uploads\/Internal-3-255-600x266.webp 600w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1050px) 100vw, 1050px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Encapsulating a centenary of excellence with the sheer lustre of gold, Rolex presents the Oyster Perpetual in sizes of 28 and 34 millimetres. Housed in 18-carat yellow gold, this 24-millimetre precious novelty is graced by a green stone dial \u2013 delicate yet bold and restrained yet expressive. Featuring a green stone lacquer dial, the Oyster Perpetual 34 arrives in Everose gold with a blue stone lacquer dial. The hour markers at three, six, and nine o\u2019clock are crafted from natural stones \u2013 a first for Rolex.

Gently shining, the Day-Date 40 arrives in 18-carat Jubilee gold with a warm, opulent glow and contrastingly paired with a green aventurine dial. On the other hand, the Oyster Perpetual Cosmograph Daytona is a Rolesium version, combining Oystersteel and platinum \u2013 featuring a sapphire case back, held in place by a platinum ring, and an Oystersteel bracelet. Fusing traditional know-how and advanced technology, this watch deftly pairs the luminosity of a white enamelled dial with the metallic effect of an anthracite Cerachrom bezel in tungsten-rich ceramic, edged with a band of platinum. Echoing the original Cosmograph Daytona\u2019s design, the tachymetric scale of the new bezel boasts \u2018suspended\u2019 numerals, which are inscribed in a thoroughly contemporary font.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p><span class=\"span-reading-time rt-reading-time\" style=\"display: block;\"><span class=\"rt-label rt-prefix\">Reading Time: <\/span> <span class=\"rt-time\"> 4<\/span> <span class=\"rt-label rt-postfix\">minutes<\/span><\/span>In the 1900s, a whole century was progressing \u2013 in science, discovery, and thought.
