The model is highly appreciated by collectors for its complete shake up of tradition. Available with different dial variations including the green dial or mother-of-pearl, the 116568BR has become one of the ‘must have’ Rolex collectors.
The uniformity of the baguette-cut diamonds in respect to their colour and shape is quite exceptional. In fact, Rolex takes extreme care in ensuring that all the stones on each individual watch are exactly matching. This sorting process is carried out by hand and by machines that are usually only found in gemological laboratories. The result is quite remarkable and is what imbues these watches with an arresting quality that is hard to define.
