Design and Craftsmanship

This Datejust presents a 36mm Oystersteel case with a domed bezel, showcasing Rolex’s commitment to durable, corrosion-resistant 904L steel for a brilliant, polished finish. The bright black dial achieves its sunray finish through masterful brushing, with grooves radiating outward to create subtle, shifting light reflections for dynamic depth. Applied via Physical Vapour Deposition or electroplating and sealed with varnish, it ensures lasting intensity, enhanced by Chromalight hour markers and hands for a long-lasting blue glow. The date at 3 o’clock is magnified by the Cyclops lens, while scratch-resistant sapphire crystal safeguards the impeccable details—exemplifying Rolex’s expertise in dial finishing and light manipulation.
