Highly sought after, the “Wimbledon” slate dial combined with the two-tone 18k yellow gold and stainless steel is the combination that many seek to add to their collection. Versatile for daily wear and distinctive enough to anchor a formal ensemble.
Presents itself in mint condition with little to no signs of wear. By using masterful brushing techniques, the sunray finish creates delicate light reflections originating from grooves running outwards from the center of the dial. 18k yellow gold and stainless steel adorned throughout the timepiece topped with a 18k yellow gold smooth dial showcase the signature Rolex approach. With the combination of the Oysterclasp and Easylink extension links, the Oyster bracelet is a proven combination of function and form.
Functions include hours, minutes, seconds, and date. With the crown fully screwed down against the case, the movement winds automatically via the Perpetual rotor and ensures the 100m water resistance. Unscrewed crown pulled to the second and outermost click quick sets the minute hand. Pulled to the first click, date can be quickset by the crown. Calibre 3235 provides a 70-hour power reserve and features a Parachrom hairspring designed to protect against magnetic and shock resistance.
Comes as a full set, double-boxed with watch pillow, warranty card, warranty wallet, and manual booklet.
The “Wimbledon” nomenclature applied to this dial configuration is not marketing language — it is collector shorthand rooted in Rolex’s deep, multi-decade relationship with The Championships at Wimbledon. Worn by tournament champions, you will find very few references that can match its prestigious history.
