　　EveryRolexwatch is not merely for telling time, but a symbol of glorious achievement and exceptional bearing. These watches are supremely accurate and serve as masterpieces of exquisite craftsmanship. Whether set with brilliant gems or fitted with a complex, precision chronograph movement, a Rolex festive selection watch will surely help you find the piece of your dreams, adding the utmost joy to the festive season. Nearly 50 years after the birth of the Rolex Oyster Perpetual Cosmograph Daytona, the new Cosmograph Rainbow Daytona finally debuted at the 2012 Baselwatch Fair. Compared to previous Rolex Daytona models, this rainbow diamond edition greatly enhances its approachability, bringing a breath of fresh air to the collection. From now on, whenever you see someone wearing this Rainbow Daytona, you will surely exclaim, "This person is definitely no nouveau riche." Let us take a closer look at this timepiece below.

　　Introduction to the Rolex Cosmograph Rainbow Daytona Watch

　　In terms of appearance, this Cosmograph Daytona is crafted from 18ct gold and features a bezel set with rainbow-hued gems, shimmering with brilliant colours of red, orange, yellow, green, cyan, blue and purple. The lugs, crown guards and hour markers are also gem-set, jointly highlighting the captivating character of this Daytona.

　　Aside from its ingenious exterior design, the core essence of Rolex over so many years has not changed drastically. Retaining its traditional classic genes, this Daytona chronograph brings us a distinct visual enjoyment.

　　Exterior Section:

　　The 40 mm Oyster case of the Cosmograph Daytona, guaranteed waterproof to 100 metres, is an exemplar of perfect proportions and elegant style. The unique middle case is cast from a solid block of 18ct solid gold.

　　The two greatest highlights of this timepiece are undoubtedly the multicoloured gemstones on the bezel. These gems sparkle with brilliant hues such as red, orange, yellow, green, cyan, blue and violet, imparting a graceful and versatile variation in colour. Rolex has meticulously selected exquisite gemstones and set them together, endowing the watch with an extraordinary radiance.

　　The colour of the gold crystal chronograph subdials contrasts sharply with the black dial and echoes the colours of the gems. These unique subdials are crafted from a 18ct gold alloy by Rolex in its own foundry. The captivating reflective effect and magnificent colours fully showcase the delicate structure of the gold crystals, making the gold crystal of each subdial entirely unique and every piece a natural work of art.

　　The watch's lugs, crown guards and hour markers also adopt a gem-set design, whilst the crown continues the patented Triplock waterproof system, securely screwed down onto the case just like the chronograph pushers, featuring the iconic Rolex crown logo.

　　The bracelet is crafted from 18ct gold, equipped with an Oysterlock safety clasp to prevent accidental opening. This elegant solid-link bracelet was developed and patented by Rolex, offering comfortable wear and extremely simple operation, whilst also featuring the clever Easylink comfort extension link system, allowing the bracelet length to be easily adjusted by approximately 5 mm.

　　Functions Section:

　　The three o'clock position features the 30-minute chronograph subdial. The classic Daytona's chronograph layout can be regarded alongside Omega's Speedmaster series as a pioneer of chronograph watches in the history of stopwatches, as well as a leader in chronographs. The red chronograph hand has a distinct colour, making readings much easier while complementing the colourful bezel.

　　The six o'clock position is the small seconds subdial. As mentioned previously, the gold crystal chronograph subdials are cast from a 18ct gold alloy in Rolex's own foundry, with each one being a completely unique, one-of-a-kind piece.

　　The nine o'clock position is the twelve-hour chronograph dial.

　　Movement Section:

　　Regarding power, this watch is equipped with the 4130 self-winding mechanical chronograph movement developed in-house by Rolex and holding official chronometer certification. Its internal construction is identical to all Oyster movements, ensuring precision and reliability. The unique blue Parachrom hairspring offers ten times more resistance to shocks than traditional hairsprings, whilst ensuring the watch remains unaffected by magnetic fields and highly stable amidst temperature fluctuations.

　　Having said that, I would like to recommend a popular Rolex watch. Please add me on WeChat for further enquiries.

　　Review:

　　◆ As a representative masterpiece of diving watches, the Rolex Green Submariner is definitely a leader among diving timepieces. If you want a true diving watch, you might want to consider it;

　　◆ The dial size of 40MM is moderate, making it suitable for all wrist sizes. It can be paired with both formal and casual wear. Compared to the black or white of ordinary watches, the emerald green dial of the Rolex Green Submariner is a colour that is relatively difficult for most people to pull off, but it is also a very show-stopping colour, suitable for those who pursue individuality.

　　◆ The price remains consistent with the previous selling price of V6, and it is also equipped with A2836 and SA3135 movements, ensuring accurate timekeeping and bringing everyone a perfect timing experience.

　　Summary: Rolex watches combine unparalleled precision performance with unique designs, creating exemplary works that embody the highest level of haute horlogerie. The Rolex watches I recommend are well-crafted with guaranteed quality. If you wish to purchase, please add me on WeChat for consultation.
