Rolex Datejust 31mm Black Mother-of-Pearl 278273

Mother-of-Pearl Dial

Highlighting Natural Beauty

The mother-of-pearl dial reflects refined watchmaking artistry, enhanced with diamonds set in 18 ct gold settings. Naturally rich in character, mother-of-pearl reveals unique variations in colour, ranging from pink and white to black and yellow, depending on its origin within the shell.

Its tone, intensity, and structure differ from one section to another, making each dial inherently unique.

At Rolex, mother-of-pearl is never artificially coloured. Instead, skilled craftsmanship is dedicated to preserving and enhancing its natural beauty, highlighting its original hues with precision and care.

As a result, every mother-of-pearl dial is a one-of-a-kind creation, ensuring that no two watches are ever identical.

Fluted Bezel

A Rolex Signature

The fluted bezel is a distinctive Rolex design element that embodies both heritage and refinement. Originally, its fluting served a functional purpose, allowing the bezel to be screwed onto the case to help ensure the watch’s waterproofness.

This design mirrored the fluted case back, which was also securely fastened using specialized Rolex tools to maintain a sealed construction.

Over time, the fluting evolved from a technical feature into a signature aesthetic detail. Today, crafted in gold, it stands as a mark of distinction and elegance on the Datejust 31.

Yellow Rolesor

A Meeting of Two Metals

Yellow Rolesor combines 18 ct yellow gold with Oystersteel in a refined and harmonious composition. Gold is valued for its lustre and nobility, while Oystersteel provides strength and lasting reliability.

Together, they unite their finest qualities, creating a balanced fusion of elegance and durability that enhances both design and performance.

A true Rolex signature, Rolesor has been part of the brand’s identity since the early 1930s and was trademarked in 1933. It remains a key pillar of the Oyster Perpetual collection, symbolising the seamless union of two exceptional materials.

The Oyster Bracelet

Alchemy of Form and Function

The Oyster bracelet combines aesthetics and technology in a refined design that is both robust and comfortable. It embodies a seamless balance between form and function.

It is fitted with an Oysterclasp and the Easylink comfort extension system, both exclusive to Rolex. This practical innovation allows the bracelet to be extended by approximately 5 mm, ensuring quick adjustment and enhanced comfort in any situation.

With its solid construction and timeless design, the Oyster bracelet delivers durability, versatility, and enduring elegance.
