The combination of the black dial and 18KYG (yellow gold) gives this model a bold impression, and it was born as the first self-winding waterproof chronometer with a date display at the 3 o'clock position on the dial. The combination model makes it more elegant and attractive. By using more than 90% new parts, it has achieved a power reserve of 70 hours, which is about twice that of conventional Rolex movements.

Maxence Kakuret captivates viewers with his brilliant dribbling and passing.

He is known for his aggressive playing style, and in the 21-22 season, he recorded the most tackles on the team (70). His down-to-earth style of play tends to draw attention, but his calm play is hard to believe for a 23-year-old, and he is a young player with great potential for the future.

The Sky-Dweller is an elegant model made for people who travel the world . It is the first semi- complication model from Rolex to feature an annual calendar that can display two time zones at the same time, and is the only Rolex to feature a complicated mechanism. The hour, minute, and second hands display local time, and the subdial displays home time. This excellent model allows you to check each month through a small window on the outside of the index, and you can instantly grasp the month, date, and time. It is equipped with the Cal.9001, a fully in-house movement that is the first since the Yacht-Master II, and boasts a power reserve of 72 hours. The combination of the 18KYG (yellow gold) on the fluted bezel, center link, and crown and the black dial perfectly creates a luxurious yet stylish look.
