The Rolex Oyster Perpetual Air-King makes a return at Baselworld 2016 in a 40mm case

Categories：Jewelry & Watches

we were contemplating the reason for the missing Rolex Oyster Perpetual Air-King for the last couple of years. It had its share of criticism that last time round it showed up with a 34mm wide case. It didn’t seem to be large enough for the liking of those who dwell in the fad of today. So, it was a rather obvious decision for the company to introduce a version that offered a 40mm case and a few design specifications that make the return an appreciated one. The new officially certified superlative chronometer arrived at Baselworld 2016 and has brought with it everything you would expect from the Swiss watchmaker. With a larger, bolder dial that is a lot louder than its predecessor, we see that Rolex has pumped in some adrenaline into the design. It is available with a black dial and has a case design that resembles the Rolex Milgauss. It borrows the 3,6,9 hour markers from the Rolex Explorer. The movement of the watch is the 3131 in-house caliber, operating operates at 28,800 vph (4Hz) with a power reserve of 48 hours.

The Rolex Oyster Perpetual Air-King may not fit in with the conventional tool watch designs, the boldness in the design seems to give it a very unconventional, welcoming rehash.

The 2016 Rolex Cosmograph Daytona gets a ceramic bezel, enhanced movement

Categories：Jewelry & Watches

Rolex has given the Oyster Perpetual Chronograph Daytona a whole new face with a number of additions in mechanics and design. The first things to catch the eye is the ceramic bezel that has given the chronograph a major facelift. While the case still remains waterproof, the case now measures 40 mm. The black bezel takes us back to the 1965 version that came fitted with a black Plexiglas bezel insert. Baselworld 2016 welcomes the new Rolex that looks as good as it is tough. With the promise of being scratch-resistant, the monobloc Cerachrom bezel is just what you’d love to sport on the greens this summer.

To match the rad new looks, the movement sees a major overhaul as well. With a Superlative Chronometer certification (Rolex, 2015), the quality of the movement is now regulated to -2/+2 seconds a day. It leverages the Rolex Parachrom balance spring in place of the silicon balance spring and maintains a 4 Hz caliber.

The steel version of the all new Rolex Oyster Perpetual Cosmograph Daytona is available with a white and black dial. It will cost 11.800 Swiss Francs or $12,177.

THE ROLEX COSMOGRAPH DAYTONA WATCH

Rolex Cosmograph Daytona Watch

The Rolex Daytona, undeservedly regarded as a bit of a commercial failure upon its release in 1963 due to a multitude of events, including the introduction of quartz into watches and the battle with Omega to be the official NASA time piece, which it lost. The Daytona name came to be through its association with the ‘at that time’ fairly young, yet soon to be famous race track, of which it was the sponsor, but that wouldn’t save it from its fate and a good portion of the Daytona’s were left on the shelves gathering dust.

But now, 2 years since the 50th anniversary of its first release, the Rolex Daytona has shown that time is a great healer, pun intended, and once and for all its turned from the black sheep of the watch family into something of a golden swan. The designers were clearly ahead of their time, as now the Daytona is one of Rolex’s top tier time pieces. Commanding high prices and in most cases, a huge waiting list to even acquire one, while simply owning one is a huge status symbol.

With multiple colour schemes available, all in that slightly retro feel such of pale blues, browns, golds and of course silvers and blacks, as well as self winding with Rolex’s own in house movement, this chronograph exudes superior craftsmanship and once you throw your gaze at this watch, its allure will simply captivate you.
