![]() What’s next for Rolex? It’s getting a lot harder to guess, and we like it that way. Available in stainless steel in 41mm, 36mm, and 31mm case sizes, the watch dial is decorated with bubbles in the five colours of the lacquered dials that were introduced in 2020. We jest, of course, because its design is absolutely effervescent. In comparison to the Day-Date “Puzzle”, the Oyster Perpetual with “Celebration” dial almost seems staid. Instead of the day and date, these indicators display seven inspirational words, such as Hope and Love, and 31 exclusive emojis instead. As if that was not sufficiently flamboyant for Rolex, which typically makes only incremental changes in its timepieces, this “presidents’ watch” (as the Day-Date is popularly known) also showcases an off-kilter day and date window. In yellow, white or rose gold, the Day-Date 36 “Puzzle” features a jigsaw-puzzle motif created by the brand’s dial makers using champleve enamelling techniques. Nobody could have anticipated the brand’s wild - yes, wild - new highlights: two colourful watches with playful designs, the Oyster Perpetual Day-Date 36 “Puzzle” and the Oyster Perpetual “Celebration”. Following the launch of its unexpected left-hander Oyster Perpetual GMT-Master II at last year’s Watches & Wonders, Rolex continues to silence critics who deride its new releases as boring and predictable.
