Watch enthusiasts, rejoice! This month marked the Watches & Wonders 2021 trade show. The giants of the horology industry announced all the latest news about models, plans for the year, and everything else in between. Of those announcements, one of the most exciting was the release/revamp of Rolex Oyster Perpetual watches. Rolex Oyster watches are made to strive towards perpetual excellence and that is obvious in their newest releases.

            Explorer

The original Explorer was the result of collaborating with mountaineers who hiked the Himalayas. While it has undergone changes, it has kept the spirit of exploration. The watch continues to adapt to whichever harsh environments adventurers take them. They announced the Explorer is now available in yellow Rolesor. This announcement has caused a stir in the watch community. The Explorer has exclusively come in stainless steel since its conception until now. The Explorer II was given a smaller revamp including a change of color for the hands and new, improved movement. 

Datejust

Rolex announced new dial faces for the Oyster Perpetual Datejust 36. The first dial is inspired by tropical biomes decorated with green foliage. Its unique face is the perfect companion for a sunny summer. The second dial released is a Rolex signature fluted motif that brings a sophisticated look to the Datejust.

Cosmograph Daytona

One of the most popular models of Rolex’s watches, The Oyster Perpetual Daytona, just got a major upgrade. Rolex announced their newest Cosmograph model has a meteorite dial made of an actual meteorite. The dial itself has abstract patterns that makes one think of space and asteroids. 

Day-Date & Lady-Datejust

Who doesn’t love sparkles? The new Oyster Perpetual Day-Date 36 & Lady-Datejust released with flashy colors and an incredible brilliance. The Day-Date 36 comes with bright coral, turquoise, or yellow alligator straps and features diamonds.
