Rolesor - a union of gold and steel

The juxtaposition of gold and steel with their contrasting colours and radiance, in subtly balanced harmony: this is Rolesor, an auspicious meeting of two metals on a single watch.

The name ROLESOR was patented by Rolex in 1933, and has become one of the distinctive elements marking the brand's watches, a true Rolex signature. The concept is simple: the bezel, the winding crown as well as the centre bracelet links are made of 18 ct yellow or EVEROSE gold; the middle case and the outer links of the bracelet are made of 904L stainless steel superalloy. On white ROLESOR models, the bezel alone is in gold. Introduced on the Oyster Perpetual DATEJUST model in 1948, ROLESOR met with immediate success and contributed largely to the legendary status of this distinctive wristwatch. In 2011, EVEROSE ROLESOR appeared for the first time on a Professional model: the Oyster Perpetual YACHT-MASTER II.
