The Rolex Sky-Dweller was released in 2012 as the brand’s first totally new watch collection in over 10 years.

In my opinion, the most compelling new Rolex watch presented by the Swiss brand at Baselworld 2017 was the Rolex Cellini Moonphase.

Rolex fans might recognize instantly that 41mm is the same as the Datejust II that was introduced way back in 2009.

It commands a price premium over the more traditional black ceramic bezel and matching black dial “classic” Rolex Submariner 116610LN reference model and further […]
