Rolex DAY-DATE Oyster, 36 mm, white gold M128239-0005

SILVER DIAL

The sunray finish creates delicate light reflections on many dials in the Oyster Perpetual collection. It is obtained using masterful brushing techniques that create grooves running outwards from the centre of the dial. Light is diffused consistently along each engraving, creating a characteristic subtle glow that moves depending on the position of the wrist. Once the sunray finish has been completed, the dial colour is applied using Physical Vapour Deposition or electroplating. A light coat of varnish gives the dial its final look.

18 CT WHITE GOLD

By operating its own exclusive foundry, Rolex has the unrivalled ability to&nbsp,cast the highest quality 18 ct gold alloys. According to the proportion of&nbsp,silver, copper, platinum or palladium added, different types of 18 ct gold&nbsp,are obtained: yellow, pink or white. They are made with only the purest metals and meticulously inspected in an in-house laboratory with state-of-the-art equipment, before the gold is formed and shaped with the same painstaking attention to quality. Rolex’s commitment to excellence begins at the source.
