ROLEX

Developed in the late ‘30s by watch bracelet manufacturer Gay Frères (Rolex acquired the company in 1998), the Oyster is one of the world’s most recognisable bracelets. Patented by Rolex in 1947 and composed of broad, flat three-piece links, the bracelet has gone through minor updates over the years. Its most recent was for the 2020 Oyster Perpetual Submariner and Oyster Perpetual Submariner Date. Now boasting a broader centre link to accommodate the slightly larger 41mm watch case, it is equipped with an Oysterlock folding safety clasp, designed and patented by Rolex, to prevent accidental opening. It also features the Rolex Glidelock extension system that allows the bracelet length to be adjusted up to 20mm without tools, as well as a concealed attachment system to ensure seamless visual continuity between the bracelet and case.

The Rolex Oyster Perpetual Submariner, 41mm, in Oystersteel is powered by the new calibre 3230 with a 70-hour power reserve
