It is very proud for yellow gold and rose gold Rolex watches to show off their rare metal makeup since their noticeable colors. On the other side, white gold is quietly decadent, and regarded as more mainstream stainless steel mistakenly in most cases. While most people would naturally think that stainless steel would be the prefer metal for a robust tool watch, actually there’s wonderful metal especially like white gold only if you’re well versed in the subtleties of Rolex design. However, Rolex has produced some luxury white gold sports watches indeed and let’s take a look at them.
The Rolex Submariner ref. 116619 features with a 40 mm Oyster case, Cerachrom ceramic bezel, and Oyster bracelet just like all modern Subs. Nevertheless, different with any other Submariner dive watch (except a 1970’s prototype), the ref. 116619 is crafted in 18k white gold. 
In addition to its weighty white gold construction, what makes the Submariner ref. 116619 outstanding significantly is its bright blue dial and bezel combination, which has earned the nickname “Smurf” for this model. We see the familiar round, baton, and triangular luminescent hour markers, Mercedes-style hands, and date window at 3 o’clock on the dial. For the standard of dive watches, the Cerachrom ceramic bezel of the white gold Submariner is unidirectional to prevent underestimating how much time is spent underwater.
Though few people in this world would practically take a full 18k white gold scuba diving, the Submariner ref. 116619 is really a dive watch with a water resistance rating to 300 meters.
Before the steel GMT-Master II “Pepsi” was announced this year, the white gold edition was the only one to provide available ceramic red and blue bezel option available in the GMT-Master II collection. Actually the 18k white gold Rolex GMT-Master II ref. 116719 was the first watch with a blue and red ceramic bezel worldwide. Some of us may take it for granted but ceramic is a quite difficult material to work with, particularly when adding color to the mix.
Yet, rolex daytona replica did make a sumptuous Pepsi ceramic bezel successfully and made its first appearance on top of the white gold 40 mm Oyster case of the GMT-Master II ref. 116719BLRO. Actually, the duo of colors is not just for aesthetics but also shares the distinction between night and day hours in the second time zone. That second time zone is represented through the arrow-tipped 24-hour hand on the black dial pointing to the 24-hour marked bezel, while the center Mercedes-style hands indicate local time.
With a retail price which is equal to the Tesla Model 3, the Rolex Daytona ref. 116509 is an extremely luxurious timepiece. From its 40 mm Oyster case fitted with screw-down chronograph pushers to its tachymeter engraved bezel to its sporty Oyster bracelet, the Rolex Daytona ref. 116509 is nearly designed in 18k white gold totally.
Different with white gold Submariner and the white gold GMT-Master II, the white gold Daytona has a few dial style available for option. However, they all include the trio of registers on the dial in the signature 3/6/9 o’clock layout for the 30-minute counter, running seconds display, and 12-hour counter, separately.
Given the fact that rolex swiss replica watches is one of the few watchmakers in the industry that has its own in-house foundry where all their gold is made, obviously the company is serious about each and every component that are going to create their coveted timepiece. Due to this extreme dedication to quality precisely, Rolex has gained good reputation and high status among the world’s most famous watch brand.
