Two new dial colors for the Rolex entry-level men's watch - Rolex Oyster Perpetual 39 reference 114300 - debut at the Basel Watch Fair 2018. The white and black dials add four other Rolex Oyster Perpetual 39 dials, reference number 114300 Rolex Oyster Perpetual was launched in 2015. Rolex chose to launch the 114300 with purple, olive, blue and grey dial colors a few years ago. For 2018, Oyster Perpetual 39 can use a more conservative and more functional black or white dial option. For those who want to buy a brand new entry-level Rolex, this is good news, it does not need any of the original four colors.
The 39 mm wide Rolex Oyster Perpetual 39 is the largest of the Oyster Perpetual models. As a casual or dress watch, the 39mm diameter works, but if you want to reach 40mm wide, you can spend hundreds of dollars on the Rolex Sprinter. Rolex (Rolex) The Oyster Perpetual 39 watch's biggest competitor (I think) is the Rolex Explorer 214270, which has a 39 mm wide case and movement. With this statement, Rolex's price is even higher than 850 US dollars, because this explorer's complex stomatal dial and Easylink 5 mm "comfortable extensions" are included in the bracelet. The Oyster Perpetual 39 dial is equipped with a relay hour marker and a straight hand, more elegant, not sporty, and I think it looks a bit different to the audience.
From now until 2018, Rolex uses 904L steel alloy as "Oystersteel". When you see this name, it only means 904L, but Rolex specifically blends it. Rolex wants to ensure that its more expensive steel watches are thousands of dollars more expensive than Oyster Perpetual 39 - this is true. Rolex Oyster Perpetual 39 has a smooth, polished bezel, polished edges (case and bracelet), and the rest of the case and bracelet are brushed. In my opinion, this gives the watch a younger, more technical feel. Although the quality of all Rolex is the same, Rolex can abandon this basic model compared to other more expensive timepieces produced by Swiss brands. For example, Oyster Perpetual did not weld (attach) the Rolex logo to the bracelet, but engraved the Rolex logo at the same location.
Rolex Oyster Perpetual 39 and Explorer both include the self-made Calibre 3132 automatic movement (no date) Rolex movement. Air-King still uses the old Calibre 3131, which has upgraded some performance features on the 3132 movement. At 4Hz, the movement has approximately two days (48 hours) of power reserve. This movement is of course certified by the COSC Observatory. Although it is not a Rolex more type of 32XX internal movement, the 3132 has a precision of +/- 2 seconds per day. The Oyster Perpetual 39 dial is perfectly symmetric, elegant and stylish like a Rolex. Features such as the Rolex Crown logo as a 12-hour hour mark will appeal to many Rolex brand traditionalists who want a simple everyday wear, which is also a significant Rolex status symbol.
As an Oyster watch, the 114300 case is water-resistant to 100 meters and features a screw-in crown and a sapphire crystal. With the addition of a black or white dial, Oyster Perpetual 39 suddenly became more attractive to the Rolex brand's traditionalists. They didn't look at the brand in fashion, but instead used the "red grape" "(purple) dial. Yes, I think Rolex is very good at using the Oyster Perpetual 39 as a more stylish watch, but for me, the white or black dial is more attractive to most male buyers and more color than the existing dial. Attractive.
