Rolex Datejust 31mm Mother of Pearl Dial

The detail of this watch, as indeed of all modern Rolex watches we have had the opportunity to present, is truly impressive. A closer look reveals jewellery-level craftsmanship, while the overall impression is very aristocratic. Starting with the incredible dial – in the watch presented here, this is the so-called “Mother of Pearl Dial”, used by Rolex in only a limited number of models – and moving on to the classic sapphire crystal with “Cyclops”, everything is executed with the brand’s characteristic precision and attention to detail. Of course, separate attention must be paid to the case and bezel – an incredible combination of brushed and polished 904L steel of the highest class. The bezel is the so-called “fluted” type, made of 18-carat white gold, and in combination with this dial the result is truly superb. And of course, the bracelet, strap, chain or whatever you prefer to call it – as one would expect from a Rolex, it is genuinely good. In this case, we are talking about an Oyster bracelet with a polished centre link and a solid clasp made from a single piece of steel, not from bent sheet metal as with most brands. The only thing it lacks, but only in our opinion, is the GlideLock clasp of the Sub, although here we do have the so-called EasyLink, which allows micro-adjustment by an additional 5 mm. The lug width is 20 mm, and this particular bracelet has 10 links and will fit a wrist of up to 18 cm.
