Lot Essay

The present Rolex Datejust reference 79089 is a great example of the brand's skill at gem-setting and design refinement. With its mother-of-pearl dial featuring sapphire-set hour markers and a gorgeous bezel set with 32 diamonds and 4 sapphires, this exquisite watch is a prime example of Rolex's unmatched ability to combine jewelled artistry with horological accuracy. The famous Rolex President bracelet, which accentuates its opulent appearance while preserving the collection's classic sophistication, further elevates its exquisite composition.

Gem-set Rolex watches are timeless representations of craftsmanship and status that bridge the domains of fine watchmaking and haute joaillerie. One of the most alluring gem-set interpretations of the vintage Datejust family, the current example is especially remarkable for its harmony of elegance, rarity, and mechanical excellence. It is a true testament to Rolex's creative zenith during the time.

A symbol of luxury and prestige, Rolex gem-set pieces have been created with a variety of different gems, most notably diamonds, rubies, emeralds, and sapphires, and feature a number of different dial-setting designs.
