Description
The Rolex 1908 52508 in 18k yellow gold with a black dial is a refined expression of Rolex’s contemporary dress watch, blending classical elegance with modern precision. The 39mm slim Oyster case, crafted from polished yellow gold, features a finely fluted bezel and domed sapphire crystal that nod to Rolex’s early 20th-century heritage while maintaining a distinctly modern silhouette.
The deep black dial is minimalist yet striking, with gold Arabic numerals at 3, 9, and 12, slender gold markers, and a small seconds subdial at 6 o’clock, creating a balanced and legible display. Powered by the Caliber 7140, a next-generation manual-winding movement developed specifically for the 1908, it offers 66 hours of power reserve, high precision, and a transparent sapphire caseback showcasing Rolex’s meticulous finishing.
