The fluted motif is a graphic interpretation of an iconic Rolex design element:
the bezel fluting found exclusively on some of the brand’s Classic watches.
Made from age-old materials, combined with cutting-edge technology, the
fluted-motif dial brings depth and sophistication to the timeless Datejust.
The Rolex fluted bezel is a mark of distinction. Originally, the fluting of the
Oyster bezel had a functional purpose: it served to screw the bezel onto the
case helping to ensure the waterproofness of the watch. It was therefore
identical to the fluting on the case back, which was also screwed onto the case
for waterproofness, using specific Rolex tools. Over time, the fluting became an
aesthetic element, a genuine Rolex signature feature. Today the fluted bezel is
a mark of distinction, in gold on this Datejust 36.
Gold is coveted for its lustre and nobility. Steel reinforces strength and reliability.
Together, they harmoniously combine the best of their properties. A true Rolex
signature, Rolesor has featured on Rolex models since the early 1930s, and was
trademarked as a name in 1933. It is one of the prominent pillars of the Oyster
collection.
All Rolex watches are assembled by hand with the utmost care to ensure exceptional
quality. Such high standards naturally restrict Rolex production capacity and, at times,
the demand for Rolex watches outpaces this capacity. Therefore, the availability of
certain models may be limited. New Rolex watches are exclusively sold by Official
Rolex Retailers, who receive regular deliveries and independently manage the
allocation and sales of watches to customers. Panda is proud to be part of the
worldwide network of Official Rolex Retailers and can provide information on the
availability of Rolex watches.
