Lot Essay

The present reference 116199SANR is a compelling illustration of Rolex’s creative approach to high jewelry watchmaking. The timepiece, which is made of 18K white gold, stands out for its eye-catching 'zebra' motif, which is represented by a black dial set with diamonds that form a bold striped pattern and are complemented by diamond hour markers. The matching rubber strap, which is also set with diamonds, echoes this highly decorative composition, adding to the watch's unified and distinctive look.

The hoods between the lugs are set with 24 diamonds on each side, adding to the watch's brilliance and presence. The bezel is lavishly decorated with 60 black sapphires on the front, framed by diamonds along the outer edge. The overall effect is dynamic and luxurious, demonstrating Rolex's skill at fusing unique design with valuable materials.

The uniformity of the gemstones, in both colour and cut, is exceptional. To guarantee flawless hue consistency, Rolex employs strict selection criteria, meticulously matching each stone by hand and with the use of specialized gemological equipment. The outcome is a composition that is both visually captivating and harmonious, highlighting the manufacturer's proficiency in high jewelry.
