The result is a dial that beautifully balances tradition and contemporary appeal.

Movement & Precision

Powering this timepiece is the in-house Rolex Calibre 2236, an automatic movement designed for exceptional performance.

With a 55-hour power reserve, the movement ensures reliability and practicality for modern lifestyles.
