Design and Materials
Crafted from Oystersteel, a proprietary 904L stainless steel alloy developed by Rolex, the 36mm case ensures exceptional resistance to corrosion and maintains its polished finish even in the harshest environments. The domed bezel adds a touch of sophistication, while the black sunray-finish dial provides a captivating visual appeal.
The dial features Chromalight hour markers and hands, emitting a long-lasting blue luminescence for optimal readability in low-light conditions. The minimalist design, devoid of a date window, emphasizes the purity of timekeeping.

At the heart of this model lies the Rolex Caliber 3230, a self-winding mechanical movement entirely developed and manufactured in-house. This movement boasts a power reserve of approximately 70 hours and operates at a frequency of 28,800 vibrations per hour. Incorporating Rolex’s patented Chronergy escapement and a Parachrom hairspring, the Caliber 3230 offers enhanced efficiency, precision, and resistance to shocks and magnetic fields.
