The Carthusian movements of the Rolex Oyster Perpetual

As for the movements of the Rolex Oyster Perpetual models, it must be said that they are based on a self-winding mechanical apparatus. Swiss chronometers certified by the COSC (Contrôle officiel suisse des chronomètres) entirely developed and produced by Rolex through a scheme with common characteristics capable of guaranteeing remarkable performance and adherence to certain criteria of reliability, precision, impact resistance, reliability and easy maintenance, as well as that timely. A range of thick technical details that certify, if there is still a need, the quality of the work carried out by the Swiss company. An unmistakable trademark for the creation of superlative men’s and women’s watches.

Unmatched chronometric precision

Going further into the details of the movements of the Rolex Oyster Perpetual watches, it is possible to observe components with exceptional peculiarities. Starting with the variable inertia balance wheel, equipped with Microstella gold nuts that ensure excellent stability. The spiral with Rolex curve is fixed, on the other hand, to the balance wheel bridge and brought back towards the center of gravity; and the concentric development that is created defines balance-spiral oscillations capable of giving greater precision to the whole. The oscillation frequency in question is 28,800 vibrations per hour (ie 8 per second) and gives the product an unimaginable accuracy.

Bridge, lubricants and finishes

A Rolex Oyster Perpetual, whether new or pre-owned, has the technical parts just described. To which others are added, such as the bridge of the balance wheel. In fact, it is able to provide a stable positioning of the regulating organ, improving its strength and rigidity. Regarding lubricants, it can be said that they are of paramount importance for the correct functioning of a mechanical movement. Synthesized directly by Rolex, which has improved durability and stability, they ensure remarkable performance. As for the finishes, the state-of-the-art decorations of each single element stand out: the plates and gears are pearled, the bridges satin, pearled or decorated with spiral motifs, the heads of the screws are mirror polished, with edge and slot blunt.

Rolex Oyster Perpetual and a thick chronometer

The watches in the Rolex Oyster Perpetual catalog have a green seal that certifies their Superlative Chronometer status. An exclusive title obtained after successfully passing a series of final checks carried out by Rolex in its laboratories. Unique tests that analyze the chronometric accuracy after the cashier operation, water resistance, automatic winding and autonomy. A brand of excellence, therefore, for luxury watches, such as the Rolex Oyster Perpetual Air King; to which is added a five-year guarantee, as per practice for each model produced by the Swiss company.

Accuracy and resistance

If you want to fully understand the objective quality of Rolex Oyster Perpetual chronographs, it is necessary to make another focus on its technical parts. The regulating body determines, through its oscillations, the accuracy of these watches; the paraflex developed by Rolex is a unique and highly effective anti ‑ impact device as it ensures impact resistance up to 50% higher. And the unmistakable (as well as harmonious) ticking of the Rolexes passes through the escapement mechanism, essential for a smooth measurement of time.

Rolex Oyster Perpetual as the new generation of luxury watches

After describing its technology in every detail, we need to focus on those who are the exponents of this avant-garde.

Winning combinations for items that, with the right outfit, can increase your self-esteem in any situation.

Silver dial and Caliber 3230

The movement of these watches is marked by the caliber 3230, a Rolex-branded patent with automatic winding. The heart of this peculiarity lies in the automatic winding module with Perpetual rotor. And through this, the caliber offers a power reserve of around 70 hours ensuring a very high standard of performance.
