Rolex’s rigorous testing process relies on state-of-the-art equipment as much as it does on human expertise. Qualitative analysis is performed on the gemstones, with each diamond and gemstone subject to the same criteria. Once the gems have been chosen, the gemologists work together with designers and engineers to map out the layout of the diamonds and to prepare, to the smallest micron, the metal on which the stone will be set. Finally, with hands as skilled as watchmakers’, every stone, one by one, is set into the watches. A close look at Rolex diamond watches reveal the uniformity of each stone and their flawless alignment on the timepiece. |
