This model's diamond-set black dial with counters features 18 ct gold hour markers and hands in Chromalight, a highly legible luminescent material.
Tachymeter
A major feature of the model is the bezel engraved with a tachymeter scale for measuring up to 400 miles per hour or average speed. Combining high tech with sophisticated aesthetics, the black bezel is reminiscent of the 1965 model with its black Plexiglas bezel insert. The new monobloc Cerachrom bezel, made of high-tech ceramic, offers many advantages, such as excellent corrosion and scratch resistance and insensitivity to UV rays. The highly durable bezel also features a PVD (physical vapor deposition) process that provides exceptional legibility with its graduations coated with a thin layer of platinum. The monobloc Cerachrom bezel is molded in one piece, firmly fixing the crystal to the middle case and guaranteeing water resistance.
18 ct white gold
Owning its own foundry, Rolex has the expertise to cast the highest quality 18 ct gold alloys. Depending on the amount of silver, copper, platinum and palladium mixed together, different types of 18 ct gold are produced: yellow, pink and white. The extremely pure metals from which these alloys are made are scrutinized in our state-of-the-art laboratories. The gold alloy is then manufactured and shaped with the same meticulous care. Rolex's relentless pursuit of watchmaking extends to bare metal.
