Dubbed “the pearl of the Oyster collection”, the Rolex Pearlmaster embodies the essence of high-end watchmaking. Known for its exquisite design crafted exclusively in precious metals, it features gem-set cases, bezels, dials, and bracelets, creating a mesmerizing display of brilliance.

In 2015, the Rolex Pearlmaster ventured from neutral tones into new designs that boast a wide range of vibrant colors, appealing to watch lovers who appreciate bold and lively hues. These timepieces, serving as both jewelry and precision timekeeping instruments, were also made available in a striking 39mm size – perfect for both men and women.

Design and Aesthetics

Debuting at Baselworld 2015, the Rolex Datejust Pearlmaster 39 with Sapphire Bezels are meticulously crafted in 18k yellow or white gold, with alloys manufactured from the brand’s own foundry. Sharing the same case shape as the ladies’ Pearlmaster watches, they offer three distinct variations: 18k yellow gold with orange and yellow sapphires, 18k yellow gold with blue and green sapphires, and 18k white gold with pink and blue sapphires, each accompanied by a coordinating dial in three colors: red grape, olive green, and cognac.

Rolex’s commitment to excellence extends to its in-house foundry, laboratory, and manufacture, along with a dedicated gemology laboratory tasked with selecting the highest quality gems suitable for Rolex timepieces.

The Datejust Pearlmaster 39 with Sapphire Bezels feature rainbow baguette cut sapphires and colored dials, arranged in a stunning gradient array. The sapphires are meticulously chosen to create a seamless gradient along the bezel, with each gem cut in a trapezoidal shape to fit together flawlessly, forming a continuous ring of color around the watch face. The precision in setting the sapphires and selecting the colors ensures a seamless transition between hues, displaying artistry of the highest kind. The craftsmanship and precision execution are undeniable!

Waterproofness and Movement

Encased in a solid gold Oyster case that is water-resistant up to 330 feet, thanks to its sealed caseback and Twinlock double waterproofness system on the screw-down winding crown, the Datejust Pearlmaster 39 delivers not just on aesthetics, but on the timekeeping front. The scratch-resistant sapphire crystal protects the dial, which includes Rolex’s signature Cyclops lens for enhanced date visibility. The technical excellence of the Oyster case design enables wearers to confidently wear the watch during aquatic activities and tropical escapades.

Equipped with the new Rolex caliber 3235, which debuted with the Pearlmaster 39, this range features a technically advanced movement with Rolex’s innovative Chronergy escapement. The COSC-certified chronometer movement incorporates Rolex’s internal chronometer standards and boasts features like the Parachrom balance spring and a Microstella free sprung balance, resulting in improved power reserve of 70 hours.
