New 36mm Oysters Appearing In Europe...

The newly released Oyster Perpetual 36mm offerings are appearing in Europe.

Shouldn't be long before we see them here.. I understand that RUSA is having a preview/ordering Conference this month, so August/September may be the delivery timeframe....

A 36mm Oyster Perpetual from R-L-X Germany


It reminds me of the old Air-King but in a larger size..........

According to the Rolex website they are 34mm not 36mm. Are there others in the pipeline at 36mm?

What makes the new 36mm Oyster special...the extra 2mm ?

I'm not caught up on the details.

The pictured watch is very understated.

Just lovely.
