About this watch

This Rolex Submariner Date is full of character, with signs of a purple, tropical patina on the dial. It houses the robust calibre 3135 movement, with around 48 hours of power reserve, and features a unidirectional bezel. A classic design with the brightness of 18ct yellow gold. The aluminium bezel keeps a modern design subtle, with a matt finish. A real statement and conversation piece.
