Rolex 2025: the bracelet becomes part of the conversation
Gabriel Silveirado’s account considered integrated forms, metal links and a softer dial palette.
A watch’s identity does not end at the edge of its case. Rolex’s 2025 presentation gave the bracelet a prominent role, from the Land-Dweller’s integrated appearance to the new Settimo for the 1908.
Gabriel Silveirado’s April 2025 account for WAYFARER followed several directions within the release. The Land-Dweller supplied a distinct outline, while the 1908’s yellow-gold Settimo bracelet used seven rows of links to create a different rhythm of reflected light.
Colour formed another part of the account. Lavender, beige and pistachio dials on the Oyster Perpetual softened the palette without changing the basic recognisability of the model. The article also discussed a green ceramic dial on the GMT-Master II, placing a familiar design in a different material conversation.
