That magical moment at the break of dawn, when the sun just about rises over the water and colours the sky in a mesmerising purplish spectrum becomes the breathtaking inspiration behind the new Oyster Perpetual Yacht-Master 40 watch by Rolex. Designed with a sparkly bezel set with diamonds and sapphires in tones of blue, silver and pink, this timepiece symbolically captures that fleeting glow of dawn, as well as the hypnotic dance of the aurora borealis. Cursory moments made eternal on your wrist.

Its beautiful inspiration worthy of an equally alluring metal. A first for the model, the new Oyster Perpetual Yacht-Master 40 is now cast from 18 carat white gold.

The signature bidirectional rotatable bezel is adorned with 40 trapeze-cut precious stones namely diamonds, pink sapphires, light-blue sapphires, purple sapphires and dark-blue sapphires, made all the more spectacular by a triangular diamond at 12 o'clock as well as an additional 46 diamonds on the lugs and crown guard.
