Rolex has chosen to introduce its very first ceramic dial on an 18 ct white gold version of the Oyster Perpetual GMT-Master II. In the same material, with the same green colour and the same lustre, this Cerachrom dial and the daytime half of the green and black bezel insert echo each other perfectly.
Rolex is introducing its first-ever dial made of high-technology ceramic. This inaugural green Cerachrom component makes its debut on an Oyster Perpetual GMT-Master II with winding crown on the left side of the case and date aperture at 9 o’clock, a version which additionally, this year, is presented in 18 ct white gold.
The new Cerachrom dial – created in the same way as dials in natural stone, by fitting a disc of material onto a brass plate – displays the same shade of green as the lower half of the two-colour green and black Cerachrom bezel insert that frames the watch face. This perfect tonal harmony, which remains true under all lighting conditions, is achieved by using the same type of ceramic to produce both elements.
This new version of the GMT-Master II is mounted on an Oyster bracelet equipped with an Oysterlock safety clasp.
The GMT-Master II is driven by calibre 3285, a movement at the forefront of watchmaking technology, enabling it to display the date and an additional time zone in 24-hour format, as well as the hours, minutes and seconds.
Like all Rolex watches, the Oyster Perpetual GMT-Master II carries the Superlative Chronometer certification, which ensures excellent performance on the wrist.
ONE INSTRUMENT, SEVERAL TIME ZONES
Designed as a navigation aid for professionals criss-crossing the globe, the GMT-Master became the watch of choice for travellers. It has a unique and instantly recognizable design with a bidirectional rotatable bezel and a 24-hour graduated insert, which has been made available in single-colour versions as well as in various dual-colour combinations – the lower half symbolizing daytime hours and the upper signalling night-time hours. The GMT-Master, a true ‘tool watch’, has evolved continually to offer increasing technical performance. In 1982, Rolex unveiled the GMT-Master II, with a movement allowing the hour hand to be set independently of the other hands.
With traditional hour, minute and seconds hands, a triangle-tipped 24-hour hand, and a bidirectional rotatable bezel with 24-hour graduated Cerachrom insert, the GMT-Master II can display the time in two time zones simultaneously: either the local time and a reference time, or the local time and that of an alternative time zone. The date is synchronized with the local time.
HIGH-TECHNOLOGY CERAMIC
Rolex played a pioneering role in the development of special ceramics to create particular elements of its watch cases – notably monobloc bezels and monobloc bezel inserts. Not only are these materials particularly scratch resistant, their colours are also of a rare intensity and are resistant to environmental effects. In addition, thanks to their chemical composition, the high-tech ceramics are inert and cannot corrode. The brand has developed exclusive expertise and innovative manufacturing methods that grant it complete independence in the production of these ceramic components.
On the new version of the GMT-Master II, the bidirectional rotatable bezel is fitted with a two-colour, 24-hour graduated Cerachrom insert in green and black ceramic. The moulded, recessed graduations and numerals are coated with platinum via PVD (Physical Vapour Deposition). The bezel’s knurled edge offers excellent grip and can be manipulated with ease.
THE OYSTER CASE, SYMBOL OF WATERPROOFNESS
A paragon of robustness and reliability, the 40 mm Oyster case of the GMT-Master II is guaranteed waterproof to a depth of 100 metres (330 feet). The middle case of the version presented is crafted from a solid block of 18 ct white gold. Its case back, edged with fine fluting, is hermetically screwed down with a special tool employed by approved watchmakers. The Triplock winding crown, fitted with a triple waterproofness system and protected by an integral crown guard, screws down securely against the case. The crystal, which features a Cyclops lens for easy reading of the date, is made of virtually scratchproof sapphire and benefits from an anti-reflective coating. The waterproof Oyster case provides optimal protection for the movement it houses.
CALIBRE 3285
The GMT-Master II is powered by calibre 3285, a movement entirely developed and manufactured by Rolex that was released in 2018 and introduced on the model the same year. A distillation of technology, this self-winding mechanical movement delivers outstanding performance, particularly in terms of precision, power reserve, convenience and reliability.
Calibre 3285 incorporates the patented Chronergy escapement, which combines high energy efficiency with great dependability. Made of nickel-phosphorous, this escapement is resistant to strong magnetic fields. The movement is fitted with a blue Parachrom hairspring, manufactured by Rolex in a paramagnetic alloy. The hairspring offers great stability in the face of temperature variations as well as high resistance to shocks. It is equipped with a Rolex overcoil, ensuring the calibre’s regularity in any position. The oscillator is mounted on the Rolex-designed, patented high-performance Paraflex shock absorbers, further enhancing the movement’s shock resistance.
Calibre 3285 is equipped with a self-winding system via a Perpetual rotor. Thanks to its barrel architecture and the escapement’s superior efficiency, the power reserve of this movement extends to approximately 70 hours.
OYSTER BRACELET AND OYSTERLOCK SAFETY CLASP
The GMT-Master II in 18 ct white gold with a green Cerachrom dial matched with the green and black Cerachrom bezel insert is fitted on an Oyster bracelet. Developed in the late 1930s, this three-piece link metal bracelet is known for its robustness.
The Oyster bracelet of the GMT-Master II is furnished with the Oysterlock folding safety clasp, which prevents accidental opening. It also includes the Easylink comfort extension link, developed by Rolex, that allows the wearer to easily adjust the bracelet length by approximately 5 mm. On the version presented, it includes patented ceramic inserts – designed by the brand – inside the links to enhance its flexibility on the wrist and its longevity.
SUPERLATIVE CHRONOMETER CERTIFICATION
Like all Rolex watches, the Oyster Perpetual GMT-Master II is covered by the Superlative Chronometer certification redefined by Rolex in 2015. This designation testifies that every watch leaving the brand’s workshops has successfully undergone a series of tests conducted by Rolex in its own laboratories according to its own criteria, following the official certification of the movements by the Swiss Official Chronometer Testing Institute (COSC). These in-house certification tests apply to the fully assembled watch, after casing the movement, guaranteeing superlative performance on the wrist in terms of precision, power reserve, waterproofness and self-winding. The precision of a Rolex Superlative Chronometer is of the order of −2 /+2 seconds per day – the rate deviation tolerated by the brand for a finished watch is significantly smaller than that accepted by COSC for official certification of the movement alone.
The Superlative Chronometer status is symbolized by the green seal that comes with every Rolex watch and is coupled with an international five-year guarantee.
Rarely has solid gold felt so supple and light on the wrist. The Perpetual 1908 in 18 ct yellow gold is now available on a bracelet fashioned entirely in this precious metal. An innovative geometry endows this seven-piece link bracelet with refinement and comfort in all-round elegance.
Rolex has unveiled a new metal bracelet, named Settimo, created exclusively for the Perpetual 1908 and presented on a version of the watch in 18 ct yellow gold with an intense white dial.
Refined, supple and comfortable, this completely new bracelet composed of rows of seven very small links is entirely polished, producing a sparkle of reflected light. Evoking the jewellery-inspired bracelets that graced some elegant vintage watches, its design captures the essence of the Perpetual collection, conceived by Rolex as a tribute to watchmaking tradition. It is fitted with a concealed Crownclasp, ensuring seamless visual harmony across its surface.
The 1908 is equipped with calibre 7140, a movement at the forefront of watchmaking technology, enabling the watch to display the small seconds as well as the hours and minutes. Calibre 7140 features bridges decorated with Rolex Côtes de Genève and a cut-out oscillating weight.
Like all Rolex watches, the Perpetual 1908 carries the Superlative Chronometer certification, which ensures excellent performance on the wrist.
CLASSIC AND CONTEMPORARY
Inspired by one of the first Rolex watches fitted with the Perpetual rotor, the 1908 belongs to the Perpetual collection. Launched in 2023, this collection is a reinterpretation of traditional horological style imbued with the brand’s quintessential expertise and aesthetic heritage. This elegant and understated watch was named ‘1908’ in homage to the year Hans Wilsdorf devised the name ‘Rolex’ to sign his creations and registered the brand in Switzerland. The 1908 is defined by its design, which conveys the full strength of the watch’s character in the simplicity of the display, and by details that confer its unique identity. It perfectly embodies the spirit of the Perpetual collection, at whose core lies the celebration of the art of watchmaking in its noblest form.
The 1908 features a sleek dial graced with Arabic numerals 3, 9 and 12 and faceted index hour markers. The hour hand is Breguet-style, while the minute hand is shaped like a two-edged sword. Above the small seconds counter at 6 o’clock, the words ‘Superlative Chronometer’ are inscribed in an arc shape.
THE ELEGANCE OF THE CASE
The 1908 is housed in a 39 mm case, with graceful lines and a transparent back that allows the detailed aesthetics of the movement to be admired as well as the pivoting of the oscillating weight. The curve of the middle case lugs is highlighted thanks to a gentle chamfering on their top edges, while the bezel is divided – the lower part embellished with elegant fluting and the upper part domed. Made of virtually scratchproof sapphire, the domed crystal and the transparent case back benefit from an anti-reflective coating. Guaranteed waterproof to a depth of 50 metres (165 feet), the case provides optimal protection for the movement nestled inside, and on the version presented, it is crafted in 18 ct yellow gold.
CALIBRE 7140
The 1908 is driven by calibre 7140, a movement entirely developed and manufactured by Rolex that was released in 2023 for the launch of this model, which it exclusively equips. A distillation of technology, this self-winding mechanical movement delivers outstanding performance, particularly in terms of precision, power reserve, convenience and reliability. Calibre 7140 demonstrates carefully finished aesthetics, notably on the bridges, which feature Rolex Côtes de Genève – a decoration that differs from traditional Côtes de Genève for the slight polished groove between each band.
Calibre 7140 incorporates the patented Chronergy escapement, which combines high energy efficiency with great dependability. Made of nickel-phosphorous, this escapement is resistant to strong magnetic fields. The movement also includes the patented Syloxi hairspring, produced by Rolex. This silicon hairspring has a patented geometry that ensures the calibre’s regularity in any position. The oscillator is mounted on the patented high-performance Paraflex shock absorbers, designed by the brand, which increase the movement’s shock resistance. The oscillating weight is fashioned in yellow gold and cut out.
Calibre 7140 is equipped with a self-winding system via a Perpetual rotor. Thanks to its barrel architecture and the escapement’s superior efficiency, the power reserve of this movement extends to approximately 66 hours.
SETTIMO BRACELET
The 1908 version presented is fitted on a Settimo bracelet. This new metal bracelet, fashioned from 18 ct yellow gold, exudes refinement and elegance. It gently hugs the shape of the wrist, making it extremely comfortable to wear. Thanks to its links made up of seven very small, slightly contoured link elements, polished on every surface, it also feels particularly lightweight. With a special system to attach it to the middle case, for which a patent has been filed, the Settimo bracelet is reserved for the 1908 model. It is furnished with a concealed folding Crownclasp.

Three models in bold configurations. Original combinations of colours and materials elicit new emotions. The Oyster Perpetual Cosmograph Daytona, GMT-Master II and Sky-Dweller are unveiled with new dials that magnify their aura.
Rolex unveiled flamboyant new faces on three of its iconic models renowned for their technical sophistication and emblematic design.
Indelibly linked to the world of motor sport and the measurement of elapsed time, the Oyster Perpetual Cosmograph Daytona is arrayed with a resplendent turquoise blue lacquer dial punctuated by bright black counters. Crafted in 18 ct yellow gold, this new watch is crowned with a black Cerachrom bezel showcasing the celebrated tachymetric scale that plays a key role in the model’s identity, and is complemented by an Oysterflex bracelet with Oysterlock safety clasp.
A cosmopolitan watch designed for all those who criss-cross the globe, the Oyster Perpetual GMT-Master II is offered with a new dial, made from tiger iron. This natural stone, containing a combination of tiger’s eye, red jasper and hematite, has a fascinating hybrid appearance. The watch presented is in 18 ct Everose gold with a brown and black Cerachrom bezel insert. It is fitted on an Oyster bracelet, itself equipped with an Oysterlock safety clasp.
Sophisticated and elegant, the Oyster Perpetual Sky-Dweller is a constant companion to travellers the world over. This year, an 18 ct yellow gold version dons a sunray finished dial in bright green – an intense hue that marries beautifully with the colour of the watch. An additional touch of refinement is provided by the Jubilee bracelet, also in 18 ct yellow gold and fitted with an Oysterclasp.
Like all Rolex watches, the Oyster Perpetual Cosmograph Daytona, Oyster Perpetual GMT-Master II and Oyster Perpetual Sky-Dweller carry the Superlative Chronometer certification, which ensures excellent performance on the wrist.
HIGH-TECHNOLOGY CERAMIC
Rolex played a pioneering role in the development of special ceramics to create particular elements of its watch cases – notably monobloc bezels and monobloc bezel inserts. Not only are these materials particularly scratch resistant, their colours are also of a rare intensity and are resistant to environmental effects. In addition, thanks to their chemical composition, the high-tech ceramics are inert and cannot corrode. The brand has developed exclusive expertise and innovative manufacturing methods that grant it complete independence in the production of these ceramic components.
The Cosmograph Daytona in 18 ct yellow gold with turquoise blue lacquer dial features a monobloc Cerachrom bezel in black ceramic. On the GMT-Master II in 18 ct Everose gold with tiger iron dial, the bidirectional rotatable bezel is fitted with a two-colour, 24-hour graduated Cerachrom insert in brown and black ceramic.
On these two Cerachrom components, the recessed graduations, numerals and inscriptions are moulded and then, via a PVD (Physical Vapour Deposition) process, coated with a thin layer of metal – yellow gold for the tachymetric scale on the Cerachrom bezel of the Cosmograph Daytona and pink gold for the markings on the Cerachrom bezel insert of the GMT-Master II.
THE FLUTED BEZEL, A SIGNATURE FEATURE
The fluted bezel has been offered on many Classic models in the Oyster Perpetual collection since the invention of the Oyster case in 1926. Its fluting was originally used in screwing down the bezel against the middle case, thereby indirectly playing a part in waterproofness. Today, however, its role is mainly aesthetic, with each perfectly identical groove catching the light and creating myriad subtle reflections. Exclusively made in 18 ct gold or in 950 platinum, the fluted bezel is the result of the brand’s unique expertise and one of the pillars of its stylistic heritage.
The fluted bezel of the Sky-Dweller with bright green dial is fashioned from 18 ct yellow gold – the same material as its Oyster case and Jubilee bracelet.
THE OYSTER CASE, SYMBOL OF WATERPROOFNESS
A paragon of robustness, reliability and elegance, the Oyster case of the Cosmograph Daytona and GMT-Master II – both 40 mm in diameter – as well as that of the Sky-Dweller – 42 mm – is guaranteed waterproof to a depth of 100 metres (330 feet). The middle case of the versions presented is crafted from a solid block of 18 ct yellow or Everose gold. Its case back, edged with fine fluting, is hermetically screwed down with a special tool employed by approved watchmakers. Both the Triplock winding crown, fitted with a triple waterproofness system and protected by an integral crown guard, and the Twinlock winding crown, with a double waterproofness system, screw down securely against the case, as do the chronograph pushers on the Cosmograph Daytona. The crystal – featuring a Cyclops lens at 3 o’clock for enhanced legibility on models with the date function – is made of virtually scratchproof sapphire and benefits from an anti-reflective coating. The waterproof Oyster case of each of the three watches provides optimal protection for the movement it houses.
CALIBRES 4131, 3285 AND 9002
The Cosmograph Daytona, GMT-Master II and Sky-Dweller are driven by self-winding mechanical movements entirely developed and manufactured by Rolex. A distillation of technology, they deliver outstanding performance, particularly in terms of precision, power reserve, convenience and reliability.
The Cosmograph Daytona is equipped with calibre 4131, which enables the watch to measure intervals of time via the chronograph function, in addition to displaying the hours, minutes and seconds. Released in 2023, it was introduced on the model the same year and is exclusive to this watch. Calibre 4131 demonstrates carefully finished aesthetics, including bridges decorated with Rolex Côtes de Genève and a cut-out oscillating weight.
The GMT-Master II has been fitted with calibre 3285 since the movement’s introduction in 2018. It provides the model with the date function and an additional time zone in 24-hour format, as well as the hours, minutes and seconds.
The Sky-Dweller is powered by calibre 9002, furnishing the watch with an annual calendar – date and month – and an additional time zone in 24-hour format, together with the hours, minutes and seconds. Introduced in 2023, calibre 9002 is exclusive to this model.
All three calibres incorporate the patented Chronergy escapement, which combines high energy efficiency with great dependability. Made of nickel-phosphorous, this escapement is resistant to strong magnetic fields. These movements are fitted with a blue Parachrom hairspring, manufactured by Rolex in a paramagnetic alloy. The hairspring offers great stability in the face of temperature variations as well as high resistance to shocks. It is equipped with a Rolex overcoil, ensuring the calibre’s regularity in any position. The oscillator is mounted on the Rolex-designed, patented high-performance Paraflex shock absorbers, further enhancing the movements’ shock resistance.
Calibre 4131, calibre 3285 and calibre 9002 are equipped with a self-winding system via a Perpetual rotor. Thanks to their barrel architecture and the superior efficiency of their escapement, the power reserve of these movements extends to approximately 72 hours, 70 hours and 72 hours respectively.
OYSTERFLEX, OYSTER AND JUBILEE BRACELETS
The Cosmograph Daytona with turquoise blue lacquer dial and bright black counters is fitted on an Oysterflex bracelet. Developed by Rolex and patented, this bracelet is made up of two flexible, curved metal blades – one for each of the sections – overmoulded with high-performance black elastomer.
The GMT-Master II with dial in tiger iron is mounted on an Oyster bracelet. Developed in the late 1930s, this three-piece link metal bracelet is known for its robustness.
The Sky-Dweller with bright green dial features a Jubilee bracelet. Supple and comfortable, this five-piece link metal bracelet was specially created for the Oyster Perpetual Datejust, launched in 1945.
The Oysterflex bracelet of the Cosmograph Daytona and the Oyster bracelet of the GMT-Master II are each equipped with the Oysterlock folding safety clasp, which prevents accidental opening, while the Jubilee bracelet of the Sky-Dweller is fitted with a folding Oysterclasp.
The Oysterflex bracelet is furnished with the Rolex Glidelock extension system. Developed by the brand and patented, this inventive mechanism with a rack located under the clasp cover enables fine adjustment of the bracelet length, without the need for tools. The Rolex Glidelock on the Oysterflex has six notches of approximately 2.5 mm, allowing the length of the bracelet to be effortlessly adjusted up to some 15 mm.
The Oyster bracelet of the GMT-Master II and the Jubilee bracelet of the Sky-Dweller feature the Easylink comfort extension link, developed by the brand, which allows them to be easily lengthened by approximately 5 mm. Made of 18 ct Everose gold and 18 ct yellow gold respectively, they include patented ceramic inserts – designed by Rolex – inside the links to enhance their flexibility on the wrist and their longevity.
